2.2.2 - MobileIron - Do Not Allow Simple Value

Information

iOS devices can be configured via the iPCU to check passwords upon entry to disallow the use of repeating, ascending, and/or descending character sequences. By default, simple passcode values are permitted and checks for repeating, ascending, and descending character sequences are not performed. It is recommended that such sequences be disallowed for the passcode.

Solution

From the MobileIron console, open the Policies and Configs -> Policies view. Under the Security Policy verify that Password Type is set to Alphanumeric.
