Password Policies

These password policy options can be set at the user or role level. The default password policy has pre-selected settings and other rights. You can change these values in the Password Policy container. The settings displayed depend on whether you are configuring password policies for user or role.

For more information about password policies, see the Security Precautions Technical Reference in the PureConnect Documentation Library on the CIC server.
