Oracle WebLogic must enforce password complexity by the number of numeric characters used.
Description
Discussion Text
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.
Application servers provide either a local user store or they integrate with enterprise user stores like LDAP. When the application server provides the user store and enforces authentication, the application server must enforce the organization's password complexity requirements that include the requirement to use a specific number of numeric characters when passwords are created or changed.
