Discussion

Password strength is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting guessing and brute force attacks. Passwords that contain repeating or sequential characters are significantly easier to guess than those that do not contain repeating or sequential characters. Therefore, disallowing repeating or sequential characters increases password strength and decreases risk. SFR ID: FMT_SMF.1.1 #1

Check Content

Review configuration settings to confirm simple passcodes are not allowed.

This check procedure is performed on both the Apple visionOS management tool and the Vision Pro. 

Note: If an organization has multiple configuration profiles, the check procedure must be performed on the relevant configuration profiles applicable to the scope of the review. 

In the Apple visionOS management tool, verify "Allow simple value" is unchecked. Alternatively, verify the text "<key>allowSimple</key> <false/>" appears in the configuration profile (.mobileconfig file).

On the Vision Pro: 
1. Open the Settings app. 
2. Tap "General".
3. Tap "VPN & Device Management". 
4. Tap the configuration profile from the visionOS management tool containing the password policy.
5. Tap "Restrictions".
6. Tap "Passcode".
7. Verify "Simple passcodes allowed" is set to "No".

If "Allow simple value" is checked in the Apple visionOS management tool, "<key>allowSimple</key> <true/>" appears in the Configuration Profile, or the password policy on the Vision Pro does not have "Simple passcodes allowed" set to "No", this is a finding.
