Some organizations have security requirements that require the AutoComplete attribute to be set to "off" for Usernames and Passwords in form-based authentication. Bamboo does not prevent autocompletion by default. and this can be done by modifying the login form.
Solution
With a few modifications, the autocomplete=off attribute can be set for both the username and password fields. You will need to modify user login template to set autocomplete to off.
