Token Lifetime |
Set the number of minutes a user can stay logged into Safeguard for Privileged Passwords.
Range: 10 minutes to 28,800 minutes (20 days)
Default: 1,440 minutes (one day) |
Web Client Inactivity Timeout |
Set the maximum time to allow from the user's last request to the server before the user is automatically logged out. The default is 15 minutes. The minimum value is five minutes and the maximum value is 2,880 minutes (two days) if the Token Lifetime is increased to match the value. If the Token Lifetime is not increased, the token will expire before the Web Client Inactivity Timeout.
When the timeout period is met, a message displays and the user can continue or log out. If there is no response, the user is automatically logged out. The default is 15 minutes. |
Lockout Duration |
Set the number of minutes a locked out account remains locked.
Range: One to 9,999 minutes; A setting of 9,999 requires an administrator to manually unlock the account.
Default: 15 minutes |
Lockout Threshold |
Set the number of consecutive failed sign-in attempts within the Lockout Window required to lock a user account.
If a user submits an incorrect password for the maximum number of times specified by the account Lockout Threshold settings within the Lockout Window, Safeguard for Privileged Passwords locks the account until the Lockout Duration period has been met.
Range: 0 to 100 failed sign-in attempts; A value of 0 (zero) indicates the user’s account will never be locked due to failed log ins. The default is five consecutive failures. Set the Lockout Threshold to a high enough number that authorized users are not locked out of their user accounts simply because they mistype a password. |
Lockout Window |
Set the duration (in minutes) in which Safeguard for Privileged Passwords increments the number of failed sign-in attempts.
Range: 0 to 15 minutes; A value of 0 (zero) means that there is no time limit to tracking failed log on attempts.
Default: 10 minutes |
Deactivate After |
Set the number of days to wait before automatically disabling an inactive user account.
If a user has not logged onto Safeguard for Privileged Passwords this number of days, Safeguard for Privileged Passwords disables the user account.
NOTE: The Authorizer Administrator must also reset the user's password when re-enabling a disabled account.
Range: 14 to 365 days
Default: 365 days |
Minimum Password Age |
Set the number of days a user must wait before changing their password.
Range: 0 to 14 days
Default: Zero |
Maximum Password Age |
Set the number of days users can use their current password before they must change it.
Range: 0 to 180 days; A value of 0 (zero) indicates passwords never expire.
Default: 42 days |
Password Age Reminder |
Set the period of time (in days) before the Maximum Password Age limit is met and Safeguard for Privileged Passwords begins to remind the user that their password is about to expire.
NOTE: This value will also be applied to any Active Directory Identity and Authentication providers. This only acts as a reminder. A user will not be able to change their directory password from within Safeguard for Privileged Passwords. If an Active Directory user is part of a Fine-Grained Password Policy, that policy’s maximum password age setting takes precedence.
Range: 0 to 45 days
Default: 14 days |
Password History |
Enter the number of old passwords stored by Safeguard for Privileged Passwords for user accounts. Stored passwords cannot be reused, and are replaced on a first-in, first-out basis.

Range: 0 to 24 old passwords; A value of 0 (zero) disables password history restrictions allowing users to always reuse old passwords.
Default: Five stored passwords |

Enable Secure Token Service Login Timeout |
Select this check box to set a 15 minute expiration time for session based cookies.
Session based cookies are used during login. Typically, a session based cookie does not expire and is deleted by the browser/user-agent when closed. This setting, when enabled, will cause the session-based cookies to have a 15 minute expiration time, enforced by the server. This adds security and can prevent some replay attacks. End users must complete the login process within this time frame, including any multi-factor authentication. |
