Password Restrictions

Application allows defining a list of passwords that cannot be used by any user of the system in the bank. This list, called the Restrictive Passwords list can be defined at three levels:
  • At the bank level (applicable to all the users of the system)
  • At the user role level (applicable for all the users assigned the same role)
  • At the user level (applicable for the user)

The list of Restrictive Passwords should typically contain those passwords the users are most likely to use: the name of your bank, city, country, etc. For a user role, it could contain names, or terms, that are commonly used in the department. At the user level, it could contain the names of loved ones, etc. By disallowing users from using such common passwords, you can reduce the risk of somebody other than the user knowing the password.
