Account Security

Account security settings define some global user account configurations, including Vinchin backup server web console session timeout, max password retry, password expiration time, minimum password length and password complexity settings.

The Session Timeout option determines when the web console session will expire due to inactive user activity.

Password Retry options determines the max password retry allowed before a user account is locked. Once a user account is locked, admin user needs to unlock this user account from System > User Management > Users page (admin user will not be locked).

Password Expiration option determines how long the user account password expires, when the password is about to expire, user will receive popup notification on the web console, when password is expired, user will be redirected to the change password screen to change password and re-login.

For the Password Length and Password Complexity, these 2 options determine the minimum password length and the password complexity rule.
