Password Protection
Passwords are an important aspect of security since poorly chosen passwords could result in
unauthorized access to company resources. Implementing password management best practices
ensures that users adhere to a set of guidelines for creating and protecting their passwords.
Typical components of a password policy should define:
■
Password length and strength
■
Password duration
■
Common password practice
Enforce the following standard practices for creating strong, complex passwords:
■
Do not create a password that contains the user name, employee name, or family names.
■
Do not select passwords that are easy to guess.
■
Do not create passwords that contain a consecutive string of numbers such as 12345.
