      Problem

      Modern companies require advanced password management features, part of this was shipped in Confluence 9.1 with a password strength management policy.

      However, advanced password management functionality can also include Password aging and expiry (although according to NIST SP 800-63B this is not currently a recommendation).

      Solution

      Implement password expiry periods to enforce rotation.

            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.
