What applications do you have that IT controls the password requirements for?

IT controls your AD credential requirements in most cases and that's pretty much it. It sounds like your employer needs to implement an SSO solution.

It is the AD credentials. It's a fortune 500 company and it doesn't even come close to NIST recommendations.

We have like 3 different ADs as a result of mergers and acquisitions, and the requirements are all different.

What are the requirements?

[–] Windex007@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

One of them is EXACTLY 8 ASCII characters, may not contain any English dictionary word, no repeating character. At least 1 number, and at least 1 special characters. Just obliterates the search space.
