During the summer of 2017, we released a new Buzz UI, giving you the same features and functionality with a cleaner, simpler user experience!
Until all users have switched to the new UI, our Help Center articles will include information for both.
Click the header below that aligns with the Buzz UI version you are using (Old UI or New UI); if you don't know which version you are using, review the differences and/or contact your system admin or Agilix account manager.
Secure your user's information with greater control over password requirements.
To set your password policy:
- Open Settings from the Domain toolbar.
- Select the Integrations tab.
- Check the Set password policy box.
- Complete the relevant fields:
- Minimum password length: This number represents the lowest number of characters the password must contain.
- Minimum character classes used: This number represents the minimum number (up to four) of character classes (lowercase, uppercase, numbers, and special symbols) the password must contain.
- Must change password after: This duration can be set in various units (days, years, months, etc.) and must be entered using International Organization for Standardization (ISO) designators (see section below).
- Cannot reuse passwords for: This duration can be set in various units (days, years, months, etc.) and must be entered using ISO designators (see section below).
- Lockout after unsuccessful login attempts: This number represents the number of failed logins before the user is locked out.
- Lockout lasts for: This duration can be set in various units (days, years, months, etc.) and must be entered using ISO designators (see section below). You can manually override password lockouts if necessary.
- Save.
ISO durations use one-letter designators and a simple format to indicate standardized time intervals. To enter a duration:
- Enter P (period) if you want to use days, weeks, months, or years as your unit of time, and PT (period, time) if you want to use seconds, minutes, or hours.
- Enter the number of units that you want to use.
- Enter the desired time unit designators:
- D (days), W (weeks), M (months), Y (years) if you used P.
- S (seconds), M (minutes), H (hours) if you used PT.

Will this setting at the domain level automatically filter down to all the subdomains, or is it strictly for this one domain?
Hey Candi, it trickles down to subdomains unless that subdomain explicitly has a different password policy defined.
