Passwords
Define rules for the use of devices and assignment of passwords.
Regularly update the passwords to increase security.
Only use passwords with a high password strength. Avoid weak passwords for example
"password1", "123456789" or similar.
Make sure that all passwords are protected and inaccessible to unauthorized personnel.
See also the preceding section for information on this.
Do not use one password for different users and systems.
Certificates and keys
Use a certification authority including key revocation and management to sign certificates.
Make sure that user-defined private keys are protected and inaccessible to unauthorized
persons.
It is recommended that you use password-protected certificates in the PKCS #12 format
Verify certificates and fingerprints on the server and client to prevent "man in the middle"
attacks.
It is recommended that you use certificates with a key length of at least 2048 bits.
Change certificates and keys immediately if there is a suspicion of compromise.
