Description hdunkel 2016-02-25 11:17:13 UTC

Description of problem:
Could you please accept the password policy for www.redhat.com on bugzilla.redhat.com? On www.redhat.com I am managing a lot of sensitive information (subscriptions, lists of servers, etc.) and yet I am allowed to use a safe and easy to remember password. bugzilla is "just" a bugtracker readable for everyone, not a high-security bank. Its password security policy is out of scale, compared to www.

Thanx in advance
Harri

This statement is incorrect.  In addition to the bugs that are public, Red Hat Bugzilla contains a large volume of sensitive information that Red Hat is contractually obliged to protect.

The current password policy was set after we found that a significant number of users with access to sensitive data were using passwords that could only be classified as extremely weak.

How about a single sign on for {www,bugzilla,etc}.redhat.com ?
