Okta Classic Engine
- Navigate in the Admin Dashboard to Security > Authentication > Password.
- Identify the password policy for which this feature should be enabled and press Edit.
- Under Password Security, enable the Breached Password Protection by checking the box for Expire the password after this many days or Take custom actions using Workflows.
Configuration Settings
- The "Expire the password after this many days" setting allows admins to set the number of days users can sign in with breached credentials. This numerical value can be between 0 and 10 days.
- The "Take custom actions using Workflows" setting will require an already existing workflow to be selected prior to being able to save the password policy.
NOTE: These two settings can be used at the same time, allowing admins to expire the user password and log out users from Okta immediately while taking custom actions using workflows.
