Requiring complex passwords in your network

With the tools that attackers have available today, simple passwords should be outlawed by every company. Turning on the requirement for complex passwords in your network is pretty simple; the hard part is knowing where to find the setting. We are going to require complex passwords by making a change inside Group Policy. We will be using Group Policy in a step-by-step fashion, and combining this recipe with the chapter on Group Policy in the book Windows Server 2016 Administration Cookbook, published by Packtwill give you even more creativity in the way that you could later change the implementation of this password policy.
