The Character Set Password Validator determines whether a proposed password is acceptable by checking whether it contains a sufficient number of characters from one or more user-defined character sets.
For example, the validator can ensure that passwords must have at least one lowercase letter, one uppercase letter, one digit, and one symbol.
The Character Set Password Validator component inherits from the Password Validator

| Description | Specifies a character set containing characters that a password may contain and a value indicating the minimum number of characters required from that set. Each value must be an integer (indicating the minimum required characters from the set) followed by a colon and the characters to include in that set (for example, "3:abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz" indicates that a user password must contain at least three characters from the set of lowercase ASCII letters). Multiple character sets can be defined in separate values, although no character can appear in more than one character set. |
