•
Passwords automatically expire after __ days. Select this checkbox to force users to
regularly change their passwords. Enter the number of days that each user may keep a
password before Wave requires them to change it.
You can override this setting for individual users to permit passwords that never
expire. You can also manually force a user to change his or her password whenever
you want. See “The Security tab” on page 11-82.
•
Automatically lock out accounts after __ failed logon attempts. If this checkbox is
selected, Wave locks out an account after the number of consecutive failed logon
attempts that you specify. A locked-out account cannot log on to Wave, even with the
correct username and password, until the Wave administrator unlocks it.
•
Automatically clear lockout after __ minutes. Select this checkbox to have Wave
automatically reopen locked-out accounts after the amount of time (in minutes) that
you specify.
