Hi All,

As a part of PCI DSS version 2.0 compliance there are some features 
available OOTB in Ofbiz These features will help organizations using Ofbiz 
to get  PCI Compliance of the application. However there are many more 
features that are required to be built within Ofbiz. One of such 
comprehensive feature is "Password Management". Some of the broad 
requirements from PCI DSS perspective for this specific feature are:

- Verify user identity before performing password resets.
- Set passwords for first-time use and resets to a unique value for each 
user and change immediately after the first use.
- Change user passwords at least every 90 days.
- Require a minimum password length of at least seven characters.
- Use passwords containing both numeric and alphabetic characters.
- Do not allow an individual to submit a new password that is the same as 
any of the last four passwords he or she has used.
- Set the lockout duration to a minimum of 30 minutes or until 
administrator enables the user ID.

Password Management is not available OOTB in Ofbiz. The Plan is to build 
this feature and get this implemented in Ofbiz. I was looking at the 
various Password Management features available in Apache products. Few 
are:

1) 
http://archiva.apache.org/docs/1.1.3/adminguide/customising-security.html
2) https://cwiki.apache.org/SYNCOPE/policies.html

Would like to hear from all of you on what will be the best approach in 
building this feature called "Password Management" in Ofbiz
