Obscure feedback of authentication information.
NIST SP 800-171 & CMMC 2.0 3.5.11 Requirement Explanation:
If you do not obscure passwords when they are entered into your systems they can be observed by an attacker.
Example NIST SP 800-171 & CMMC 2.0 3.5.11 Implementation:
Ensure that your systems are configured to obscure passwords when they are entered into password fields. An example is when you enter your password into your laptop and it displays dots instead of the password. This condition also applies to smart phones and tablets managed by your company. In general this is performed by default by most systems.
