Use this tab to identify or select system password options of the Acid.
The fields in this tab are listed below:
Specifies the CA-Top Secret minimum password length.
Specifies the minimum number of days between password changes.
Specifies the number of days the user will be warned before expiration of account password.
Specifies the number of previous passwords to be maintained as part of the ACID's password history file. Prevents users from reusing old passwords when their current password expires.
Specifies the number of pairs of repeating characters in a new password. NR or NR=0 indicates that no characters may be repeated in succession. .
Specifies the type of character that will be accepted for each position in a password.
Specifies the password expiration interval.
Specifies a maximum password violation threshold. If the user exceeds the specified threshold by entering the incorrect password too may times, CA-Top Secret suspends the ACID.
Syntax: PTHRESH Default: 4
Specifies the threshold value for the number of attempts allowed for new password reverification before complete logon sequence needs restarting. This option is applicable to TSO and CICS only.
Prevents a user from specifying a new password that contains his ACID or a new password whose first four characters are part of the user's name.
Specifies that vowels (A,E,I,O,U) cannot appear in a new password.
Specifies that only numbers may appear in a new password.
Specifies that a new password must contain a national character ($,@,#) between the first and last positions.
Specifies that CA-Top Secret randomly generate a password for users when their password expires.
Prevents ACID (user) from changing their password.
Prevents users from specifying a password too similar to their previous password, such as:
Prevents user from specifying a new password that is on the restricted passwords list.
Specifies that only the MIN= and MINDAY= suboptions apply to new passwords. Also, WARN= remains in effect.
Permits a site to suppress viewing users' passwords.
Allows the MSCA's ACID to be suspended automatically if the password violation threshold, set through the PTHRESH option, is exceeded. This prevents a user from making an unlimited number of guess attempts to determine the MSCA's password.
