The VMM must enforce a 60-day maximum password lifetime restriction.
An XCCDF Rule
Description
Any password, no matter how complex, can eventually be cracked. Therefore, passwords need to be changed periodically. If the VMM does not limit the lifetime of passwords and force users to change their passwords, there is the risk that the VMM passwords could be compromised.
