The HPE Nimble must enforce a minimum 15-character password length.

Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting attempts at guessing and brute-force attacks. Password length is one factor of several that helps to determine strength and how long it takes to crack a password.

The shorter the password, the lower the number of possible combinations that need to be tested before the password is compromised. Use of more characters in a password helps to exponentially increase the time and/or resources required to compromise the password.

Type "userpolicy --info" and review output for line: "Minimum Length".

If it is 15 or more, this is not a finding.

Set minimum password length to 15 by typing "userpolicy --edit --min_length 15".
