Description

Use of a complex password helps to increase the time and resources required to compromise the password. Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting attempts at guessing and brute-force attacks. Password complexity is one factor of several that determine how long it takes to crack a password. The more complex the password is, the greater the number of possible combinations that need to be tested before the password is compromised.

ℹ️ Check

Check the Fly Server Manager security configuration: - Log on to Fly Server with an admin account. - On the Management >> General Settings page, click the "Security Option" tab. - Verify the Password Complexity setting. If the Password complexity setting is not set to Custom, with checkboxes enabled for uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numerical digits, and special characters, this is a finding.

✔️ Fix

Configure the Fly Server Manager security configuration: - Log on to Fly Server with an admin account. - On the Management >> General Settings page, click the "Security Option" tab. - Set the Password Complexity setting to Custom, select four checkboxes to enforce that the password must contain four character types: uppercase letters, lowercase letters, digits, and special characters.
