Learn how password reset security and automation are critical to regulatory compliance and improving application and system security.
A passwordless environment is still a distant concept, despite being discussed for a long time. For now, the world is locked into usernames and passwords, and no matter how secure the authentication solution is, those credentials won’t be wiped out overnight.
That’s why it’s important to develop processes and use technologies that allow you to securely reset passwords. Some regulations such as PCI-DSS even directly instruct the frequency that passwords need to be reset, in addition to other rules.
Having the technology to secure and automate this process is critical to regulatory compliance and improving application and system security.
Requested by and Administrator User
A user with administrator privileges on the PAM solution can schedule a password change for some or all of the devices registered in the PAM solution at any time.
Determined by the Institution's Password Policies
Based on the company’s password policies registered in the system, the PAM solution automatically and periodically changes passwords, bringing greater operational efficiency to the information security team.
Determined by Password Exposure
When a user is authorized to view a password stored by the PAM solution, the password can be used for a certain period of time on the system. When that time expires, the appliance will immediately change the password so that the credential returns to the custody of the appliance.
Centralized access management ensures maximum protection and control over generic and high-privilege credentials. It offers secure storage, segregates access, and provides full traceability of usage.
When configuring access groups, you can define administrator users who are allowed physical access passwords, plus user groups who can use the solution's remote access for accessing target devices or systems.
Every case can incorporate multi-level approval workflows and include reasons provided by the requesting user for added transparency.
