The Password Policy Configuration feature establishes password requirements, including complexity rules, expiration intervals, and history settings. These policies are designed to strengthen system security by enforcing robust password practices and preventing unauthorized access.

Key benefits include:

  • Complexity Requirements: Ensures passwords meet minimum standards for complexity, such as length, character types, and variation, making them harder to guess or crack.
  • Expiration Intervals: Defines the frequency at which passwords must be changed to reduce the risk of long-term exposure.
  • Password History: Prevents users from reusing previous passwords, ensuring that new passwords are consistently unique and secure.
