Where to set PIN complexity requirements for Windows 10 devices joining Azure AD?

Question

Thursday, May 12, 2016 3:13 PM

We are starting to join our Windows 10 laptops to Azure AD. When we join them, the users have to set up a PIN as part of the Microsoft Passport authentication. I don't want users to be able to create simple PINs like 1234. But I don't see where to set the complexity requirements. Is this something that can be done through the Azure AD management console, or something that has to be configured at the device level. If on the device, where?

Hi DavidS,

For implement Microsoft Passport, see:

Implement Microsoft Passport in your organization

Check the PIN Complexity part.

For Azure AD console management, you might need to confirm that with the Azure Forum:
