Setting an administrator password on the token enables the administrator to unlock a locked token by resetting a new token password if it is forgotten. We recommend initializing all tokens with an administrator password.
Password Quality feature enables the administrator to set certain complexity and usage requirements for the password.
Note: Password is an important security measure in safeguarding your company’s private information. The best passwords are at least eight characters long and include upper and lower case letters, punctuation marks and numbers created in a random order. We recommend against using passwords that can be easily discovered, such as names or birth dates of family members.
