Password Policy Compliance¶

Password security policies can be configured in the system to help maintain organizational standards.

Note

A secret is marked with the non-compliant compliance indicator if it violates one or more policies.

Common Policy Violations

A secret becomes non-compliant when:

  • Password is too short (minimum length requirement)

  • Lacks required character types (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols)

  • Password has expired based on rotation schedule

  • Matches known breached passwords

  • Reuses a previous password

To see which policy requirements a secret violates:

  1. Hover over the non-compliant indicator to display a tooltip listing the policy requirements not met by that secret.
