In ActiveDir &gt;&nbsp;Users &gt;&nbsp;User &gt;&nbsp;Account , &nbsp; I have unchecked &quot;Password never expires&quot; so after 14 or 30 days (I cant remember), and so the user is prompted to change their password after that time period.<br />

Operating system security (OS security) is the process of ensuring OS integrity, confidentiality and availability. OS security refers to specified steps or measures used to protect the OS from threats, viruses, worms, malware or remote hacker intrusions. OS security encompasses all preventive-control techniques, which safeguard any computer assets capable of being stolen, edited or deleted if OS security is compromised, including authentication, passwords and threats to systems and programs.
