Update Authentication.yaml with Password Complexity Restrictions #145

Closed rayeschiller closed 3 years ago

Passwords should require 1 capital letter, 1 number, and 1 symbol.

Thank you for the suggestion. In the current Digital Standard, we evaluate if the authentication system force user to set up a complex password. "1 capital letter, 1 number, and 1 symbol" could be one kind of situation that met the requirement. So, it overlaps with another indicator. @billfitzg @mrerecich
