# Password Policy
A **Password Policy** is a set of rules and guidelines that an organization or system implements to define the requirements and constraints for creating and managing passwords.
The primary purpose of a password policy is to **enhance the security of user accounts** by ensuring that passwords are strong and not easily guessable.
1. Open the Admin Console.
2. On the left-hand side, locate and click on **Settings.**
3. In the **Settings** section, click on the **Password Policy** tab.
4. On the right-hand side of the **Password Policy** tab, you will see a Password Policy.

#### **VALIDITY DETAILS**
***Password validity***
* The **Password validity** field serves as an enable/disable button.
* When this field is enabled, two additional fields become visible: **Validity Day** and **Notify User Before.**
* These two fields allow users to specify the number of days the password remains valid before requiring a change and the number of days before expiration when a user should be notified.
* However, if the **Password validity** field is disabled, these two additional fields will not appear.
* This setup allows users to control password expiration settings based on their needs.
***Validity Day:*** Specifies the number of days for which the password remains valid before needing to be changed.
***Notify User Before:*** Indicates the number of days before password expiration when a user should be notified
**Saving Policy Settings**
1. After configuring your policy settings, locate and click the **Save** button.
2. Clicking the **Save** button is necessary to save the policy settings you've created.
