Password Rotation Policies with Twingate

Password rotation policies exist to prevent this exact failure. In a network powered by Twingate, they matter even more. Twingate replaces traditional VPNs with a Zero Trust model, but weak credentials can still break the chain. Rotation policies reduce the risk by ensuring passwords expire on a fixed schedule.

The best practice is to rotate every 60–90 days. Combine this with strong complexity requirements and multi-factor authentication (MFA). Twingate can integrate with your identity provider to enforce these rules automatically. Centralized management means no manual tracking, no guessing who has an outdated password.

Automation matters. With Twingate, password rotation can be handled through your IdP’s policy engine. Tokens and service accounts need rotation too—attackers target non-human identities because they are often ignored. Set policies for these in the same framework.

Audits close the loop. Review logs monthly. Confirm rotations happened as scheduled. Twingate’s admin console shows connection attempts, failures, and MFA usage. Any irregularity is a flag to investigate.

Skipping rotation is like leaving the same key under the same mat for years. Strong password rotation policies, enforced through Twingate, harden access points and limit damage when credentials leak. Pair this with role-based access, short-lived tokens, and regular reviews to create layered protection.
