Description Jan Christoph Ebersbach

2017-11-27 10:54:41 CET

The BSI recommendations on passwords suggest to display the password quality interactively while the user is typing it: https://www.bsi.bund.de/DE/Themen/ITGrundschutz/ITGrundschutzKataloge/Inhalt/_content/m/m02/m02011.html

This would enhance the security in key scenarios greatly because school districts often suffer from hacked user accounts.

This issue has been filed against UCS 4.2.

UCS 4.2 is out of maintenance and many UCS components have changed in later releases. Thus, this issue is now being closed.

If this issue still occurs in newer UCS versions, please use "Clone this bug" or reopen it and update the UCS version. In this case please provide detailed information on how this issue is affecting you.

Still a feature request.

This feature will partially solve a customer request. 
Although this particular request asked to display the current password complexity criteria during the "change password" dialog the feature will solve the problem when the interactive display will act based on the rules for the particular account.
