VSM now provides you with even more control over your windows Windows environments.
We have added the ability to periodically execute custom PowerShell commands for Managed Windows Servers and view results within VSM.
...
A maximum of five PowerShell commandlets may be added with minimum frequency of 5 minutes.
Password Complexity Improvements
In addition to MFA, we have added the ability to increase your users' password complexity. This functionality is also configurable under your account settings.
By default every password must be:
- at least 8 characters long
- must comprise alphanumeric characters, including at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, and one number
Administrators have the ability to further customize password complexity by defining the minimum password length which can be set to a maximum of 15 characters. This is managed under the entity account settings tab.
Existing users whose passwords do not meet these requirement will be made to change their password the next time they log on to VSM.
