Enabling and Configuring a Password Policy for Data Vault Logins

Administrators can create a password policy for device application logins in a new or existing application connection template. A password policy ensures that user-defined passwords conform to corporate security requirements.

A policy cannot be enforced unless developers add enforcement code to the data vault for an application. For information about creating a data vault that enforces the platform policy, see Creating a DataVault that Enforces Password Policy.
