The system can help our customers to enforce that passwords are not too simple, are reused, or have other weaknesses.
Your system administration (typically your superuser) can enable the features that enforce improved password security.
Security measures that can be enforced:
- Mechanisms to ensure that the complexity of the password is high. (Password Complexity: Case sensitivity and prohibit inclusion of the username in the password)
- Ensure that it is not possible to reuse old passwords (Password History)
- Ensure that passwords are long enough (Password Length)
- Ensure that the users are enforced to change their passwords after a configurable time. (Password Age)
Configuring the system:
Create the following properties in General Master Data under "Dataloy Property".
Property Name | Value | Description |
|---|---|---|
com.dataloy.password.history | number | Number of passwords before the same password can be reused |
com.dataloy.password.minlength | number | Minimum length of the password |
com.dataloy.password.complexity | true/false | Will check if password contains username, and enable case sensitive passwords |
com.dataloy.password.expire | number | Maximum age of the password (in days), forces the user to create a new password. |
