Creating password strength rules

You can create a password policy that defines the rules to which passwords must conform. For example, password strength rules might specify that the minimum number of characters of a password must be five. Password policies can be applied to user passwords and to generated passwords of shared credentials.

1. From the navigation tree, select Manage Password Policies.
2. Create a password policy or change an existing one.
   • To set password policy for users, select the Default password policy for ISPIM Service.
   • To set password policy for identity providers, create or change a password policy and ensure that you selected an identity provider on the Targets tab to which you apply the password policy.
3. Using the Rules tab for the password policy that you select, specify the rules that determine whether a password entry is valid.
