Hi, is it possible to enforce a password complexity? E.g. length or/and type of characters.  
Thanks!

Hi @dervomsee

welcome to our community!

Unfortunately there is no option for a password complexity yet. We have already some feature requests for it and I will have a look if I can prioritize this feature a bit higher.  
Since we are an open source project and are working mainly for our customers, it still can take some time until we can start working on password complexity.

Thank you for your understanding.

Ok, thank you for the explenation.  
Maybe i can solve it with external authentication through LDAP.
