Use the Password Configuration tab on the Manager Properties dialog box to set password configuration requirements for ESM Manager User Account passwords. Setting password configuration requirements helps you secure Symantec ESM by ensuring that the passwords used to access user accounts on an ESM manager meet proper security requirements. To set password configuration requirements, you must use a user account that has the Modify Password Configuration assess right selected in the Advanced Manager Rights dialog box.

The ESM account and any administrative account that is created by the Add Manager Account Wizard have this right by default.
