asked on

windows network password strength test

Greetings EE Gods...

I am starting in a new company, and looking for a tool.

This tool needs to be able to run through the established logins on a domain, and check to make sure the passwords are not being too weak.  If they are, i have to report it to their leadership, so they can change to a stronger password.  

This tool must be able to test local computers too for local logins as well.

Help?

Try GFI LanGuard:

Or, just enable strong passwords and force everyone to change their password at next login.

well, how do I check the passwords to see if they're not just XMAS'd (ie.  !@#$%12345qwertQWERT)


Thanks.
I definetely gave you the wrong link - sorry! Ii cross-posted to another question and swapped the answeres by accident.

You need something like GFI Languard to audit the passwords.
