| Description |
|---|
| Applications must enforce password encryption when storing passwords. Passwords need to be protected at all times and encryption is the standard method for protecting passwords. If passwords are not encrypted, they can be plainly read and easily compromised. Rationale for non-applicability: The MDM server must use the Enterprise Authentication Mechanism for administrator accounts. |
