Override password/security policies

Is there any way to override the password/security policies I've set up on my CentOS Xen VPS running WHM/cPanel temporarily, so that either I, or one of my cPanel account-holders can change a password (such as their cPanel account, an email account, etc.) to something less secure than whatever I've set the default security score as (such as 50)? Thanks.

  Hello :) Yes, this is adjustable via: "WHM Home " Security Center " Password Strength Configuration" You would have to temporarily modify the value and then change it back when finished. Thank you.

  But how do I override it temporarily? Would I just adjust the score down, have the password change made, and then adjust it up again?

  That would work.
