Managing security policies
Version:
Enable security policies for user authentication and session management to improve application security. You can control the strength of user IDs and passwords, manage session time-outs and the disabling of operator IDs, control the auditing of login events, and implement CAPTCHA and multifactor authentication.
The password, lockout, audit, and operator ID disablement security policies are supported in offline-enabled applications. Multifactor authentication policies are applied only when two-factor authentication is used in custom authentication policies and in application case flows. The operator disablement policy is not enforced unless the Disable Dormant Operators agent is enabled.
