IMG 1010 - ClientView Password Enhancements
Overview:
Feature F-1689 ClientView Password Enhancement added in software version 10.5.3 adds security and complexity to the password policies used when logging into ClientView. The changes were made to the ‘addusr’ and ‘chpwd’ functions only. Any existing username/passwords as well as the default password (admin/admin) will exist until the password has been altered by using the functions in the AdminView application. The password policy has changed so that when entering a password it must meet the criteria displayed below.
Passwords must be at least 8 characters in length.
Passwords must contain at least 3 of the 4 criteria below:
Capitals
Lowercase
Numbers
Symbols ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( )
