Enforce a strong password policy
T
here are different attacks on passwords today, so you should follow the
best practices for managing your passwords. Here are some of the best
practices:
• Always change default passwords.
• Choose strong passwords.
Use a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers,
and special characters when assigning a password.
In addition, protection increases with the password length. A strong
password consists of at least 8 characters.
Document deviations of the best practices
If the system does not allow one of the best practices to be
followed this should be documented. For example: maybe you do
not allow the special character "=" in the password.
