NOTE: The Password Strength Meter displays password strength based on a fixed algorithm that cannot be edited. Passwords that conform to your password policy are not necessarily considered “Strong”.

Display confirmation message after password change When you check this box, the page will refresh after a successful password change, and all of the displayed fields for changing passwords will be replaced with a message containing the results of the password change. This option helps to prevent users from changing their passwords multiple times by mistake. AfterChg.jpg
