Checking password complexity in the security console

When you install a user password in the security console has the ability to organize and control its complexity. To specify constraints that must be met for the password, either via the configuration file or through a dialog box «Agents\password Complexity» (settings are saved in a configuration file).

If you change the password the user entered value will be automatically monitored, and in violation of the restrictions be given an appropriate message.
