It's the UsersMembershipProvider for the back office users. And yes, it does inherit from the .net MembershipProvider so you should be able to use the properties you list ok.
I am using Umbraco 4.7. and i have set the membership provider as below but when i change my password in member section or user section, these are not apply.
We're using 4.7.2 and we've got to enforce password strength on our sites for Users (not members), and making the web config changes has no effect as Tammy says. I tried to extend the umbraco.providers.UsersMembershipProvider but getting a null exception error on loading.
There is a bug raised for this (U4-215) but in the meantime a workaround wouldbe great.
Configuring password complexity for back office users
As the topic suggests, is it straight forward to set the password complexity required for back office users?
Does the Membership Provider for the back office extend the .NET Membership provider which allows you to set the following?
minRequiredPasswordLength="1"
minRequiredNonalphanumericCharacters="0"
passwordFormat="Hashed"
maxInvalidPasswordAttempts="5"
passwordAttemptWindow="10"
passwordStrengthRegularExpression="" />
Also which Membership provider is used for the back office? Is it UmbracoMembershipProvider or UsersMembershipProvider?
Thanks in advance.

Hi Adam,
