Password Policies

About Password Policies

You can use Password Manager to create password policies that define which passwords to reject or accept. Password policy settings are stored in Group Policy objects (GPOs). A GPO is applied by linking the GPOs to a target container defined in Active Directory, such an organizational unit or a group.

Group Policy objects from parent containers are inherited by default. When multiple Group Policy objects are applied, the policy settings are aggregated.

For information on how to apply a password policy and change policy link order, see Managing Password Policy Scope.
