Unique Characters Rule

The Unique Characters rule rejects passwords that don't contain a minimum number of unique characters. For example, the password "aaaaaaaa" only contains one unique character (a), whereas "mypassword" contains nine unique characters (mypasword). Increasing the number of unique characters in a password increases password strength by avoiding repetitive sequences. The Unique Characters rule is case sensitive, so "LoOpHole" contains seven unique characters (LoOpHle).

Select the Unique characters checkbox to enable the Unique Characters rule.

Select the minimum number of unique characters that passwords must contain from the dropdown list.
