2.2.9 Password Management
This topic describes about password management.
The Oracle Banking Liquidity Management application relies on external password management and does not store any credentials. If an external LDAP is used, password management and policy rules can be set on that.
If OIM/OAM is configured, password management and policy rules can be set on OIM. The IdP (Identity Provider) in case of SAML takes care of the password policies.
Certain user password related parameters should be defined at the bank level. These parameters will apply to all the users of the system. Examples of such parameters are the number of invalid login attempts after which a user ID should be disabled, the maximum and minimum length for a password, the number of previous passwords that should not be used, the interval at which the password should be changed by every user, etc.
Password Policies
To enable password validation, there is a flag given in SECURITY_CONFIG table called.
