BlackBerry 10 OS must enforce a maximum lifetime of 120 days for the device unlock password (password age).
Overview
| Finding ID | Version | Rule ID | IA Controls | Severity |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| BB10-00-000190 | BB10-00-000190 | BB10-00-000190_rule | Low |
| Description |
|---|
| Changing passcodes regularly prevents an attacker who has compromised the password from re-using it to regain access. This is an unlikely scenario, but is addressed by setting a password expiration. The IA control only needs to be enforced in product level STIGs if there is a need for such rotation based on the expected operational use of the device. |

| If the local command determines that there is not a need for password rotation based on the expected operational use of the device, this requirement does not apply. On BlackBerry Device Service: Ensure "Maximum Password Age" IT Policy rule is set to 120 (days). Otherwise, this is a finding. |
