| Description | ||||
| Password complexity, or strength, is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting attempts at guessing and brute-force attacks. If the information system or application allows the user to consecutively reuse their password when that password has exceeded its defined lifetime, the end result is a password that is not changed as per policy requirements. | ||||

Details
Check Text (C-237913r858963_chk)
If there is no CA VM:Secure Product PASSWORD user exit in use, this is a finding.
Examine the CA VM:Secure product PASSWORD user exit for requirement that uses a "PWLIST" option that prohibits password reuse for five generations.
If this code is missing, this is a finding.
Fix Text (F-41082r858962_fix)
Engineer code in the CA VM:Secure Product PASSWORD user exit that uses a "PWLIST" that prohibits password reuse for five generations.
