# Password Settings

Restrictions can be set on the Password Settings screen to prevent end users from using simple passwords for password changing and resetting operations.

## Blacklist Settings

A text file with a maximum size of 200 MB can be uploaded to this area by selecting it with the Browse button. The Save button allows the selected file to be processed into the database.

## Password Settings

During the password reset and change process, the rules under which the user can use the password are determined. It is ensured that the character sets selected here are suggestions and those that are not selected are not mandatory. The selected password can be used by using a set less than 1 of the selected set.

For example: While Upper Case Lower Case Number is selected, Special Character is not selected. In this case, the password (qwer1234) that provides at least two options is considered valid. However, an important point to remember is that the password policy here does not overwhelm Active Directory password policies, and at least Active Directory will still apply.

Minimum password length can also be determined in this section.
