Description

Setting the policy lets you control the triggering of password protection warning. Password protection alerts users when they reuse their protected password on potentially suspicious sites. Use PasswordProtectionLoginURLs and PasswordProtectionChangePasswordURL to set which password to protect. If this policy is set to: * PasswordProtectionWarningOff, no password protection warning will be shown. * PasswordProtectionWarningOnPasswordReuse, password protection warning will be shown when the user reuses their protected password on a non-allowed site. * PasswordProtectionWarningOnPhishingReuse, password protection warning will be shown when the user reuses their protected password on a phishing site. Leaving the policy unset has the password protection service only protect Google passwords, but users can change this setting.
