system security, confirm that the password length and complexity meet requirements
when maintenance engineers are changing passwords. The password setting
requirements are as follows:
− Change the preset password immediately after the system goes online.
− Do not use a weak password such as password, admin, and 123456.
− The password must contain at least eight characters.
− At least two types of the following are required in the password: digits, uppercase
letters, lowercase letters, or special characters (`~!@#$%^&*-_=+;:'",.? or space).
− The password must be different from the previous five passwords.
− The password must be different from the user name or its reverse.
− Periodically change the password of the user account.
A password that has been used for a long time is more likely to be stolen or cracked,
and the risk increases along with the time of use. Change the password at least once
half a year.
