Minimum Requirements for Passwords

Oracle provides a set of minimum requirements for passwords.

Passwords must be at least 12 bytes long. (The maximum is 1024 bytes.) There are a variety of ways that you can secure passwords, ranging from requiring passwords to be of a sensible length to creating custom password complexity verification scripts that enforce the password complexity policy requirements that apply at your site.

Note: The 12-byte minimum password length applies only to Autonomous AI Database.
