I filled out the survey - our password policy follows the USG standard set forth in section 5.8.3 of the Information Technology Handbook (http://www.usg.edu/information_technology_handbook/). We're currently rolling out Specops Password Policy and Password Reset (http://www.specopssoft.com/) in order to put technical controls in place for our AD environment, and we plan to use SSO for Google Apps (email for students) and LDAP for Desire2Learn. /tim -- Tim Faircloth System Administrator, GSW IIT Phone: 229-931-5076 From: The EDUCAUSE Security Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU] On Behalf Of Thomas Carter Sent: Tuesday, February 18, 2014 3:17 PM To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU Subject: [SECURITY] Password requirements survey I would like to tighten our password policy for better security, and I'm trying to avoid some pushback, I've been asked to review our password policies with respect to our peers for additional ammunition against the pushback. I've created a quick survey of student and faculty/staff password policies: https://www.surveymonkey.com/s/828BGPF I would appreciate any feedback any of you provide.
