Assigning Password Policies

EmpowerID supports having multiple policies to support different security requirements for various classes of users. When assigning Password policies, you should keep the following in mind:

  • Directly assigning a policy to a person takes precedence over other types of assignments. For example, if a Password Manager Policy is explicitly assigned to a person, that policy overrules a policy assignment made to the person's Business Role and Location.
  • Policies can be assigned You can assign Policies to any EmpowerID Roles and groups, to include:
    • Business Roles and Locations,
    • Management Roles,
    • Management Role Definitions,
    groups
    • Groups and
    • Query-Based Collections.
  • If a person does not have a direct policy assignment made to their person, but they belong to a role or group that does, that the person receives the policy associated with that the role or group.
  • If a person does not have a direct assignment or indirect assignment via a role or group, they automatically receive the default policy.
