Description

The idea is to not have any password requirements for normal users, but any managers or admins because they can effect other users would require a more complex password. The idea to track this by determining if the password is complex enough on the frontend.

we're going to roll this out in stages, and notify users before we force them to update their password.

  • #726
  • notify users that their password is not strong enough
  • allow us to force a user to reset their password

another option would be to require admins to use google login.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the staged checklist and the completed #726 item, then trace where frontend password complexity is determined. Clarify whether the intended path is staged notifications and forced resets for managers and admins or Google login; done means the chosen rollout can notify affected users and enforce the required reset behavior.
