Reg: Specified Special Char in Password Policy

[Former Member]

Hi Guys,

Is it possible to set specified special characters in password security policy?. I think in password security parameter have possibe to set number of required special character. But I need to set limited special characters have contain in password as per our requirements like ($ # % ~) only. If it possible, please let me know how to set those values.

Thanks & Regards

Hi,

Hi you can use the below parameters to achieve your requirement.

Login/min_password_letters: This parameter defines the minimum number of letters or alphabets (A-Z) in a password.

Login/min_password_special: This parameter defines the number of special characters in a password. These special characters include (), !, \, $, %,:,u2019, u201C, ;, =, &, #, },],{,[, >, <.

Login/min_password_diff: This parameter defines the number of differing characters from previous password.

Have a look at the below links.

Hi Srinivas,

In config tool UME password security properties have

Minimum Number of Special Characters in Password

. Actually this functionalities will support to enter no of special charaters in password. These special characters include (), !, \, $, %,:,u2019, u201C, ;, =, &, #, },],{,[, >, <. those values to support. But my question is, we need to support only specified character like ( $, %, #, ~).

In SAP will support more special characters. I was checked all those paramaeters in config tool ume password security properties. Not possible to set the specified special character in properties. So that only i raise a question.
