This article is intended as a supplement to the login and password policy section of the Adobe Connect users Guide: Set login and password policies

Match the Adobe Connect login and password policies in Adobe Connect Central to the policies of your organization. Policies established are valid for all Adobe Connect applications. Some options may be customized for each Meeting by Hosts.

• Click the Administration tab at the top of the Adobe Connect Central window.
• Click Users And Groups.
• Click Edit Login And Password Policies and enter desired values.
• Click Save.

Login Policy

Administrators can allow users to use email address as the login. The login credentials must be unique across all users.

Password Policies

Use the settings in this section to allow for your organization’s password management policies. Administrators can enforce password expiry after a predefined time period, requirements of specific characters in passwords, minimum and maximum length of passwords, and use of passwords not used previously.

By default, ‘Prevent reuse of old passwords’ in the above screenshot is not selected. Administrators can enable it and can set an appropriate limit on the number of older passwords tracked. If users try to reuse their older passwords, they are prompted with an appropriate message on the user interface.

Single Sign On (SSO):

To enable SSO:

• Click the Administration tab at the top of the Adobe Connect Central window.
