Ensure Password History Is Set to at least 24

ÉlevéeNiveau 1Automatiséemacos

Description

Over time, passwords can be captured by third parties through mistakes, phishing attacks, third-party breaches, or merely brute-force attacks. To reduce the risk of exposure and to decrease the incentives of password reuse (passwords that are not forced to be changed periodically generally are not ever changed), users must reset passwords periodically. Audit: policyAttributePasswordHistoryDepth must be >= 24 (the benchmark script only tests >= 1; the title value of 24 is enforced here).
