RACF Password Settings need to include Complexity, Examples: 1. To prevent the use of 3 repeating or sequential characters. 2. Avoid specific words such as User Name / Name of Service. 3. Prevent the use of passwords obtained from previous breaches.

Audit requires ability for specific Complexity settings as listed in my Idea above and beyond RACF specific Password settings.    

Examples:   1. To prevent the use of 3 repeating or sequential characters.  2. Avoid specific words such as User Name / Name of Service.  3. Prevent the use of passwords obtained from previous breaches.   We currently use RSA SecurID for Privileged Users which are Vaulted, these are in compliance however our Basic ids requires the added Complexity for at least 1 of these settings in my Examples.
