      NOTE: This suggestion is for Confluence Cloud. Using Confluence Server? See the corresponding suggestion.

      Modern companies require advanced password management. This includes:

      • Password aging: Automatically invalidating a password after a certain period of time,
      • Password strength check: Making sure that the passwords that are used are strong
        (an example can be found here: http://passwordstrength.net/)

      Two features that are getting more common every day.

            Just purchased Confluence and noticed that it does not have complex password policy or any password policy at all! How so? This is a major security problem. I saw some articles about setting up a password policy in the cloud based version but not on the server based one. How come? Obviously this can be done. Please provide a status on this issue.  This is issue should be marked as a Major issue and not just a suggestion. You are putting our systems and corporate environment at a high risk.

            Just to be clear, this should allow managing separate authentication directories separately (something JIRA's implementation missed). For example, users from our delegated LDAP directory don't need a policy applied, because there's already a password policy somewhere else. However, the internal directory need the password policy applied.

            +1 would be a basic feature. JIRA has it Confluence hasn;t

            We need this - without it we will have to limit the security level of our content.
