Setting Password Quality

The Password Quality feature enables the administrator to set certain complexity and usage requirements for Token Passwords.

NOTE

The Token Password is an important security measure in safeguarding your company’s private information. The best passwords are at least eight characters long, and include upper-case and lower-case letters, punctuation marks, and numbers appearing in a random order.

To set the Password Quality:

1         Open SafeNet Authentication Client Tools Advanced View.
See Opening the Advanced View

2         In the left pane, select Client Settings.

3         In the right pane, select the Password Quality tab.

The Password Quality tab opens.

4         Do one of the following:

t           Change the password quality settings, and click Save.

 

TIP

The Client Settings password quality settings are configured the same way as the Token Password quality settings. See Setting Token Password Quality

 

t           To ignore your changes, click Discard.

t           To apply SafeNet Authentication Client’s default settings, click Set to Default.

 

NOTE

When entering a value in the Expiry warning period field, you must make sure that a value is also entered in the Maximum usage period field. If no value is entered in the Maximum usage period field, an error message appears.
