changing sys password

SQL_WarriorMay 6 2019 — edited May 8 2019

our security auditor has asked us to reset the default passwords reported in the following view DBA_USERS_WITH_DEFPWD

when attempting to change the SYS password using alter user command we faced the following error

ERROR at line 1:

ORA-01994: Password file missing or disabled

your feedback is much appreciated....please note that its an 18c database instance.
