Account Password Rules

Navigate to Administrative Tools | Settings | Profile | Account Password Rules.

Account password rules govern the construction of a new password created by Safeguard for Privileged Passwords during an automatic account password change. You can create rules governing the allowable account passwords, such as:

  • Set the allowable password length in a range from three to 225 characters.
  • Set first characters type and last character type.
  • Allow uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and/or printable ASCII symbols along with the minimum amounts of each.
  • Identify excluded uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.
  • Identify if consecutive letters, numbers, and/or symbols can be repeated sequentially and, if allowed, set the maximum repetitions allowed.

Note: You select an account password rule set when defining a partition's profile. For more information, see Creating a profile. An account password rule applies to all accounts governed by the profile.

Navigate to Administrative Tools | Settings | Profile | Account Password Rules.

Use these toolbar buttons to manage your account password rules.

Adding an account password rule

It is the responsibility of the Asset Administrator, or a partition's delegated administrator, to configure account password complexity rules.

Important:

Some Unix systems silently truncate passwords to their maximum allowed length. For example, Macintosh OS X only allows a password of 128 characters. If an Asset Administrator creates a profile with an Account Password Rule that sets the password length to 136 characters, when Safeguard for Privileged Passwords changes the password for an account governed by that profile, the asset's operating system truncates the new password to the allowable length and does not return an error; however, the full 136-character password is stored in Safeguard for Privileged Passwords. This causes the following issues:


  • Check Password for that account will fail. When Safeguard for Privileged Passwords compares the password on the Unix host with the password in Safeguard for Privileged Passwords, they never match because the Unix host truncated the password generated by Safeguard for Privileged Passwords.


  • A user will not be able to log in to the Unix host account successfully with the password provided by Safeguard for Privileged Passwords unless they truncate the password to the allowable length imposed by the operating system.

To add an account password rule

  1. Navigate to Administrative Tools | Settings | Profile | Account Password Rules.
  2. Click  Add Account Password Rule to open the Account Password Rule dialog.
  3. Browse to select the partition.
  4. Enter a Name for the account password rule (up to 50 characters).
  5. Enter a Description for the account password rule (up to 255 characters).

  6. Set the password requirements.

    • Password Length: Set a range for the password allowable length from three to 255 characters. The maximum length must be equal to or greater than the sum of minimum characters required in the following steps. For example, if the password must have two uppercase letters, two lowercase letters, and two numeric characters, the minimum Password Length must be six. Note that a diacritical letter is one character.

    • First Character Type: Choose one of the following:
      • All: Alphabetical, numeric, or symbols
      • Alphanumeric: Alphabetical or numeric
      • Alphabetic: Only alphabetical characters
    • Last Character Type: Choose one of the following:
      • All: Alphabetical, numeric, or symbols
      • Alphanumeric: Alphabetical or numeric
      • Alphabetic: Only alphabetical characters
    • Repeated Characters: Choose one of the following:
      • Allow repeated characters: Any letters, numbers, or symbols can be repeated in any order, including consecutively.
      • No consecutive repeated characters: No letter, number, or symbol can be repeated after itself. You can restrict the number of consecutively repeated characters later by uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, symbols, or a combination of those.
      • No repeated characters: All letters, numbers, or symbols can only be used once in the password.
    • Alpha Character:
      • Allow Uppercase: Select to allow uppercase (capital) letters.
        • Minimum of [enter a number] Required Characters: Enter a number to identify the least number of uppercase letters required. To allow but not require uppercase letters, set this value at zero.
        • Click Advanced to set the following:
          • Limit Consecutively Repeated Uppercase Characters: If you allowed repeated characters earlier, select the check box to limit the number of consecutively repeated uppercase letters. You must enter a Max Allowed value of one or more.
          • Excluded Characters: Enter any uppercase characters you want to exclude from the password. This field is case-sensitive.
      • Allow Lowercase: Select to allow lowercase (small) letters.
        • Minimum of [enter a number] Required Characters: Enter a number to identify the least number of lowercase letters required. To allow but not require lowercase letters, set this value at zero.
        • Click Advanced to set the following:
          • Limit Consecutively Repeated Lowercase Characters: If you allowed repeated characters earlier, select the check box to limit the number of consecutively repeated lowercase letters. You must enter a Max Allowed value of one or more.
          • Excluded Characters: Enter any lowercase characters you want to exclude from the password. This field is case sensitive.

      • Limit Consecutively Repeated Alpha Characters: To set the number of repeated lowercase or uppercase letters combined, enter the Max Allowed.

        For example, if you set the Max Allowed at 2 then you can not have more than two alphabet characters next to each other in the password. Using this example, Ab1Cd2EF is valid but AbC1d2EF is not because it has three alphabet characters in a row.

    • Numeric Character:
      • Allow Numeric (0-9): Select to allow numeric characters in the password.
        • Minimum of [enter a number] Required Numbers: Enter a number to identify the amount of numbers required in a password. To allow but not require numbers, set this value at zero.
        • Click Advanced to set the following:
          • Limit Consecutively Repeated Numeric Characters: If you allowed repeated characters earlier, select the check box to limit the number of consecutively repeated numbers. You must enter a Max Allowed value of one or more.
          • Excluded Characters: Enter any numbers (0 though 9) you want to exclude from the password.
    • Alphanumeric Characters
      • Limit Consecutively Repeated Alphanumeric Characters: If you allowed repeated characters earlier, select the check box to limit the number of consecutively repeated alphanumeric characters. You must enter a Max Allowed value of one or more.
    • Symbols:
      • Allow Symbols (e.g. @ # $ % &): Select this check box to allow characters that are printable ASCII characters. These often include: ~ ` ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ - + = { } [ ] \ | : ; " ' < > , . ? /
      • Minimum of [enter number] Required Symbols: Enter a number to identify the least number of symbols required. To allow but not require symbols, set this value at zero.
      • Click Advanced to set the following:
        • Limit Consecutively Repeated Symbols: If you allowed repeated characters earlier, select the check box to limit the number of symbols that can repeat consecutively. You must enter a Max Allowed value of one or more.
        • Valid Symbols: Select this option to enter allowable special characters. Enter the allowable symbols in the Symbol List text box.
        • Invalid Symbols: Select this option to enter prohibited special characters. Enter the prohibited symbols in the Symbol List text box.
  7. Click Test Rule to check the rules set.
  8. When the rules are complete, click OK.
