password_policy

This is a Drupal 8 module for the Password Policy module. This is comprised of constraints and policies.

Constraints are different ways that you can restrict a password. A policy is an instance of a constraint that define specific parameters for the constraint.

Policies are applied through Drupal's role-based permissions system.

Password Policy comes bundled with a password expiration feature. Policies define a time-based expiration logic (based on days) and administrators have the ability to manually expire all passwords by role.

Enable

  • Download and enable the module

Plugins

All plugins are installed as separate modules. The only policies that are out of the box is the Password Reset feature.

Configure

  • Enable all plugin modules
  • Go to Password Policy's configuration page (/admin/config/security/password/settings)
  • Add policies by clicking on the tab for each plugin
  • Go to the permissions page (/admin/people/permissions)
  • Select which roles the policies applies to

Architecture

  • Password policy provides a plugin manager that defines an interface for constraints and the constraint's policies
  • Policies are implemented as permissions and enforced on the user form
  • Password expiration implements an event subscriber and forces a user to his/her user form upon expiration
  • Password time-based expiration leverages cron for tagging accounts as expired
