Introduction

Password Policy Enforcer is an advanced password filter for Windows. This Evaluator's Guide shows you how to quickly install, configure, and test PPE. You should read this guide if you are evaluating PPE, or if you are using PPE for the first time.

Password Policy Enforcer helps you to secure your network by ensuring that users choose strong passwords. When a user chooses a password that does not comply with the password policy, PPE immediately rejects the password and explains to the user why their password was rejected.

Unlike password cracking products that check passwords after they are accepted by the operating system, PPE checks new passwords immediately to ensure that weak passwords do not jeopardize network security.

You can also use PPE to ensure that passwords are compatible with other systems, and to synchronize passwords with other networks and applications.
