About the Password & MFA Policy Generator

What is a Password & MFA Policy?

A Password & Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA) Policy defines how employees and users should create, manage, and protect authentication credentials. It helps reduce unauthorized access and supports compliance with standards like ISO/IEC 27001, NIST SP 800-63, and SOC 2.

The policy covers areas such as password complexity, expiration, storage, and MFA enrollment requirements for sensitive systems.

When is it needed?

• Your organization handles sensitive or personal data that must remain secure.
• You manage systems with administrative or privileged access accounts.
• You need to meet compliance frameworks that require formal authentication controls.

Key elements of a strong policy

• Password Length and Complexity: Minimum character count, mixed types, or passphrases.
• MFA Enforcement: Requiring two or more factors for privileged accounts.
• Rotation and Lockout: Reasonable reset intervals and lockout thresholds.
• Secure Recovery: Verified identity for password resets.
• Training and Awareness: Educating users on password hygiene and phishing prevention.

Tips for implementation

• Integrate MFA in all administrative portals and VPNs.
• Adopt password managers for secure credential handling.
• Monitor failed login patterns to detect potential brute-force attacks.
• Review your policy annually as authentication standards evolve.
