-- Insists on frequent password changes
-- Requires long passwords composed of random combinations of upper and lowercase letters, numbers and special characters
-- Does not allow blank passwords
-- Checks to ensure passwords are not repeated
-- Prevents the use of any part of the user's name or user ID
-- Does not allow the use of common dictionary words
