|-
||'''Password Length'''
||The minimum length allowed for a password; must be between '''6 - 32 characters.'''
|-
||'''Complexity'''
||
Set the level of complexity required for a password. The options are as follows:
* '''No Restriction - '''any character can be used; this is the default. * '''Alpha Only - '''only letters are able to be used.* '''Alpha & Numeric - '''both letters and numbers must be used in the password.* '''Alpha & Numeric & Special Characters - '''a combination of letters, numbers, and special characters must be used. * '''Custom Policy - '''a password policy can be custom-defined. '''Disable Restriction of Common Passwords- '''Toggling on this function will then ''enable ''the user's ability to use common passwords as their password. This is not recommended for security reasons, as common passwords are easier to guess and to enable security breaches.
|-
||'''Maximum Password Changes in 24 Hours'''
||
This will set the maximum number of password changes any individual user is able to make within a 24-hour period. This is to prevent users from bypassing the password history restriction by changing their password repeatedly in order to return to a previously used password.
* This setting only pertains to password changes by use of '''Update Password '''by the user - it is not relevant to the '''Forgot Password '''link nor to the [[Global User Administrator|System Administrators]] ability to '''Set Password '''for users.
|-
||'''Password Data Restriction'''
||
Configuring this setting will restrict password settings so that values such as first name, last name, or organization name ''cannot ''be used in the password. Any number of fields can be selected from both the '''Organization '''or the '''Contact '''[[Profile]]. '''Organization FieldField '''- Both [[Standard Fields|standard]] and [[Custom Fields|custom fields]] are supported.
'''Contact FieldField '''- Both [[Standard Fields|standard]] and [[Custom Fields|custom fields]] are supported.
