Hi,

Isn't a Global Policy Object under Active Directory good enough for that ?

Subject: Password Management


Hello list members,

Does anyone know of any password management standards
that are out there?

I am looking at drafting an Enterprise wide strategy
for managing passwords, which should encompass change,
exceptions to change, password storage security,
secure practices, categorization of accounts, etc.

What I am trying to accomplish is to give a robust and
resilient structure to all the best practices out
there around password management.

I don't expect to find a silver bullet, but would
welcome any feedback.

Regards

CP
