How do I set global user password requirements?

Purpose

The password policy defines global password requirements for local NSP user accounts, including password contents and length, and expiry and reuse limits. The password policy settings apply only to local NSP user accounts authenticated using OAUTH2. The password policy does not apply to users managed through external databases.

Steps

Open Users and Security.

Select Users from the drop-down list on the toolbar.

Click More Actions, Password Policy.

In the Password Policy form, configure user password requirements in any of the following ways:

Not Recently Used	Specifies the number of unique password that must be used before the current password can be used again.
Password Expiry	Specifies the number of days a password can be used before it expires.
Special Characters	Specifies the minimum number of special characters that must be used in the password. Allowable special characters are: `()@#$%&!*_+~`
Uppercase Characters	Specifies the minimum number of uppercase characters that must be used in the password.
Lowercase Characters	Specifies the minimum number of lowercase characters that must be used in the password.
Digits	Specifies the minimum number of numerical characters that must be used in the password.
Minimum Length	Specifies the minimum number of characters that must be used in the password.
Must Not Be Username	Enable this option to prevent the account username from being used as a password.
Must Not Be Email Address	Enable this option to prevent the account email address from being used as a password.

Click Save.
