Assessment Title
Rule Text
The macOS system must require that passwords contain a minimum of one numeric character.
Description
Discussion Text
The macOS must be configured to require at least one numeric character be used when a password is created.
This rule enforces password complexity by requiring users to set passwords that are less vulnerable to malicious users.
NOTE: The guidance for password-based authentication in NIST 800-53 (Rev 5) and NIST 800-63B states that complexity rules should be organizationally defined. The values defined are based on common complexity values, but each organization may define its own password complexity rules.
