# authPasswordMatch

Compares an asserted `authPasswordSyntax` value with an `authPasswordSyntax` attribute's value when an `extensibleMatch` filter component is used. Each value is matched according to its scheme.

The rule evaluates to TRUE if and only if there is an attribute value that matches the asserted value. The rule evaluates to FALSE if no attribute value matches. Otherwise, the rule evaluates to Undefined.
