Host must enforce password complexity

VisokaNivo 1Automatskavmware

Opis

The enforcement of password complexity is managed through the Security.PasswordQualityControl parameter, allowing configuration of password length, character set requirements, and failed logon attempt restrictions. The recommended setting is "retry=3 min=disabled,15,15,15,15 max=64 similar=deny passphrase=3". The audit reads Security.PasswordQualityControl with esxcli and requires min=disabled,disabled,disabled,disabled,N with N of 15 or more. Runs in the ESXi Shell (busybox sh) as root.

Kako se ispravlja

Metod ispravke: Smernica ili zakrpa infrastrukture

To set the password complexity requirements, perform the following PowerCLI command: Get-VMHOST | Get-AdvancedSetting -Name "Security.PasswordQualityControl" | Set- AdvancedSetting -Value "retry=3 min=disabled,disabled,disabled,disabled,15" The above requires all passwords to be 15 or more characters long and comprised of at least one character from four distinct character sets.
