Hi,

if our campus elects to have people authenticate with 2-factor in order for us to assert a Silver-compatible authentication ....

and one of those factors is a password ....

are there any requirements on strength, etc of that password ?

If we wanted people to authenticate with with just a password and be Silver-compliant, then the Silver profile contains lots of requirements about how that password is stored, access to the machine rooms with the KDC, etc. However, if the password is just one of the two factors, do all of those requirements in the Silver profile still apply ?

I think I know the answer, but I thought I'd ask .. ;-)
