Behavior before version 12.0.0
Password complexity can be set to one of three levels depending on the security level needed for system. Defining this parameter in the System.Properties file enables the system to validate the password entered during user creation or password change against certain requirements that correspond to the level set.
There are three password complexity levels that can be set for the system:
Casual — presupposes minimum password length of 3 characters for system login.
Normal — password entered for the system login should have at least 6 characters including numbers.
Strong — password should include uppercase and lowercase characters, punctuation marks and numbers. Password should be at least 8 characters in length and login and password should not be alike.
Default complexity level for the system is Casual
Behavior starting from version 12.0.0 and later
Only password complexity "Strong" is supported. "Casual" and "Normal" password complexity has been removed along with possibilty to confiure it.
Requirements for strong password:
Should include upper and lowercase, special characters and numbers and be at least 8 characters in length. Passwords cannot also be the same as username.
