What UNIX component can be used to enforce password complexity requirements?

Show Answer
Correct Answer: AC

PAM (Pluggable Authentication Modules) is the UNIX component used to enforce password complexity requirements. It offers a flexible mechanism for authenticating users, and one of its many uses includes setting and enforcing password policies. SYSKEY and NTDS are related to Windows, while Shadow manages user password data but does not enforce password complexity by itself.
