Complexity Rule
The complexity rule ensures that passwords meet the following minimum complexity requirements:
- Not contain the user's account name or parts of the user's full name that exceed two consecutive characters
 - Be at least six characters in length
 - Contain characters from three of the following four categories:
- English uppercase characters (A through Z)
 - English lowercase characters (a through z)
 - Base 10 digits (0 through 9)
 - Non-alphabetic characters (Supported characters are ~`!#$%\^&._*+=-[];,/{}|":<>?()@
 
 
The complexity rule imposes the same requirements as the standard Windows policy “Password must meet complexity requirements.”
To configure the complexity rule
- Follow the steps outlined in Configuring Password Policy Rules.
 - On the Policy Rules tab, click Complexity Rule to expand the rule settings.
 - Under Complexity Rule, select the Password must meet complexity requirements check box.
