# Password Constraints

CubiLock allows you to define the password constraints required for device security. The password policy helps ensure users set secure passwords for their managed devices. These constraints can be set from the **Privacy Settings** under **Password Constraints** in your **Device Profile** configuration.

**To Add a Password Constraint:**

1. **Go to Privacy Settings**:\
   Navigate to the **Privacy Settings** section of the device profile, where you can see **Password Constraints**.

* **Click on "Add Constraint"**:\
  You'll see an **"Add Constraint"** button at the top-right of the Password Constraints section. Click on this to create a new password policy.
* **Define Password Policy Settings**:\
  The following fields are available for configuring your password constraints:
  * **Password Policy Scope**:
    * **Unspecified**: No specific requirement for the password scope.
    * **Scope Device**: The password requirement applies to the device.
    * **Scope Profile**: The password requirement applies to the user profile.

**Password Quality**:\
Set the required quality of the password. The available options include:

* **Unspecified**
* **Biometric Weak**: A password based on a low-security biometric method.
* **Something**: No specific requirements, just a password.
* **Numeric**: Requires numeric-only passwords.
* **Numeric Complex**: Numeric passwords must be complex (no repeated numbers or ordered sequences).
* **Alphabetic**: Requires alphabetic characters.
* **Alphanumeric**: A combination of both numeric and alphabetic characters.
* **Complex**: A stronger password that meets several minimum security requirements.

**Additional Settings**:

* **Password Expiration Time Out**: The number of days before the password must be reset.
* **Maximum Failed Passwords For Wipe**: Defines the number of incorrect password attempts before the device is wiped.
* **Require Password For Unlock**: Specifies if a password is required to unlock the device after a specific duration. The options include:
  * **Unspecified**
  * **Scope Device**
  * **Require Every Day**

You might configure a policy with **Password Quality** set to **Numeric**, **Password Policy Scope** set to **Scope Device**, and a **Maximum Failed Passwords For Wipe** value of **8**.

## Querying This Documentation
If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter:

```
GET https://docs.cubilock.com/profile-management/privacy-settings/password-constraints.md?ask=<question>&goal=<endgoal>
```

`ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language.
`goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal.

The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.

Use this mechanism when the answer is not explicitly present in the current page, you need clarification or additional context, or you want to retrieve related documentation sections.
