Password Constraints

Password constraints help enforce strong security by requiring users to create passwords that are difficult to guess or crack. In this section, you can define the minimum password length and set additional complexity requirements for all user accounts.

You can require that passwords include:

• At least one uppercase letter (A-Z)
• At least one lowercase letter (a-z)
• At least one numerical digit (0-9)
• At least one special character (e.g., !, @, #, $)

You can also set the minimum password length according to your organization's security policy.

When users create or change their passwords, these constraints are enforced. If a password does not meet the requirements, the user will be prompted to choose a stronger password.

NOTE

Using strong password constraints is highly recommended to protect your server from unauthorized access and to comply with common security standards. A reasonably safe configuration is shown in the screenshot above.
