Introduce Password Policies
Added by Nikolas Hagelstein over 14 years ago.
Updated about 7 years ago.
Description
Currently there is no way to configure a minimum strengh of passwords within the password change dialog.
Suggestion:
Add a configurable way to specify a minimum password strengh: lenght, complexity, special characters etc.
(issue imported from #M12722)
I think this can be done by an extension. Although this would be a neat feature, I don't see the big need to have it in core.
EDIT: As you can see in the related BT entries, there are various wishes, what can be done with passwords and failed logins. Having all this in core might be overkill.
What you could add would be a nice bar which changes its color from red over yellow to green when entering the password.

The core is currently lacking the possibility to configure password policies.
This however is considered a requirement in many large scale projects and has been reported as lacking several times already.
A first step could be to introduce a min length property in TCA for input fields
