Password Controls Clause Samples

The Password Controls clause establishes requirements and standards for the creation, use, and management of passwords within a system or organization. Typically, it mandates criteria such as minimum password length, complexity, regular updates, and restrictions on password sharing or reuse. By setting these rules, the clause helps protect sensitive information from unauthorized access and reduces the risk of security breaches caused by weak or compromised passwords.
