    • Password Aging Expiry Period:
      • This is the Number of days before a user is prompted to change their password upon logging in.
        • If, for example, the expiry period is “365 days”, and the user logs in on day 366, they will be sent to the screen pictured below and prompted to reset their password.

      • This setting is Non-Blocking This means the User can navigate away from this screen without resetting their password. 
        • The User will, however, be sent to this screen every time they log in until their password is no longer “older” than the expiry period listed in that setting.
      • This setting defaults to "0", meaning that it is disabled and will not prompt any User to reset their password. 
    • Number of Saved Password Hashes:
      • When a user updates their password, this is the number of previous passwords the new password is checked against. If this says 8, the new password can not be one of the most recent 8 passwords this User has had.
