Hi,

>From where an admin can configure this policies? Is it a file based
configuration or can configure from admin portal UI? If it's configurable
in UI, can you please point out a wire-frame for this to have better
understanding.

If we are providing these policy properties to enable, I think we have to
finalize what are the properties that should be added by default (Ex: I
think "password should not be equal to user name" should be a default
policy not a custom one etc.)

And is this password policies configured globally or domain wise? I think
it's better if we can configure it domain wise, since in a real environment
policies normally enforced for a domain.

Thanks and Regards
