Ensure 'MUST_CHANGE' Option is set to 'ON' for All SQL Authenticated Logins

MittelStufe 1Manuelle Prüfungmssql

Beschreibung

Whenever this option is set to ON, SQL Server will prompt for an updated password the first time the new or altered login is used. Enforcing a password change after a reset or new login creation will prevent the account administrators or anyone accessing the initial password from misuse of the SQL login created without being noticed.

Once the password is changed, there is no way to know specifically that this option was the forcing mechanism behind a password change.
