Enforce password complexity
On this page
Password security is crucial for safeguarding user accounts and sensitive data. StoreConnect enforces a default minimum complexity. If you require your customers to create stronger passwords set some complexity rules.
Here are the Store variables you can configure for each store to set password complexity:
Minimum number of alphanumeric characters
Default = 8
```text
passwords.minimum.alpha_numeric_characters ```
Minimum number of uppercase characters
Default = 1
```text
passwords.minimum.upper_case_characters ```
Minimum number of lowercase characters
Default = 1
```text
passwords.minimum.lower_case_characters ```
Minimum number of special characters
Default = 1
```text
passwords.minimum.special_characters ```
Important note
Setting these values does not affect existing passwords in the system, the requirements will only be enforced for new or updated passwords.
