6.2.11 Password Management
https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.7/en/password-management.html
MySQL supports these password-management capabilities:
- Password expiration, to require passwords to be changed periodically.
- Password reuse restrictions, to prevent old passwords from being chosen again.
- Password verification, to require that password changes also specify the current password to be replaced.
- Dual passwords, to enable clients to connect using either a primary or secondary password.
- Password strength assessment, to require strong passwords.
- Random password generation, as an alternative to requiring explicit administrator-specified literal passwords.
- Password failure tracking, to enable temporary account locking after too many consecutive incorrect-password login failures.

6.2.12 Server Handling of Expired Passwords
6.2.13 Pluggable Authentication
6.2.14 Proxy Users
6.2.15 Account Locking
6.2.16 Setting Account Resource Limits
One means of restricting client use of MySQL server resources is to set the global max_user_connections system variable to a nonzero value. This limits the number of simultaneous connections that can be made by any given account, but places no limits on what a client can do once connected. In addition, setting max_user_connections does not enable management of individual accounts. Both types of control are of interest to MySQL administrators. To address such concerns, MySQL permits limits for individual accounts on use of these server resources:
- The number of queries an account can issue per hour
- The number of updates an account can issue per hour
- The number of times an account can connect to the server per hour
- The number of simultaneous connections to the server by an account
