Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting attempts at guessing and brute-force attacks. Use of a complex password helps to increase the time and resources required to compromise the password. The more complex the password is, the greater the number of possible combinations that need to be tested before the password is compromised.
If the AAA Service relies on directory services for user account management this is not applicable and the connected directory services must perform this function. Where passwords are used, verify the AAA Service is configured to enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one upper-case character be used. This requirement may be verified by demonstration or configuration review. If the AAA Service is not configured to require that at least one upper-case character be used, this is a finding.
Configure the AAA Service to enforce password complexity by requiring that at least one upper-case character be used.
