Configure Password Policy in Microsoft 365
Hi Team.
I have Microsoft 365 tenant, not synchronize with AD on prem.
I need configure policy password for define:
Minimum password length, Password must meet complexity requirements, account lockout duration and other options.
Where can you configure this policy?

- There are not a lot of options when it comes to setting these options in native Azure AD. This Article walks though MSFT's ideology. https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/admin/misc/password-policy-recommendations?view=o365-worldwide
Here is the breakout of the password policy.

Main things we can configure are, disabling the strong password requirement.
