Password Management

Identity Management includes the following features for managing user passwords:

Password Policies—These policies manage user passwords by enforcing rules and restrictions governing password expiration, composition, and usage.
Password Managers—Administrators who have the Password Manager role can reset a password when a user calls the Help desk.
Self-Service Password Management—Identity Management includes several self-service tasks that allow users to manage their own passwords. These tasks include:
- Self Registration—Users specify a password when they register at a corporate web site.
- Change My Password—Users can modify their passwords without help from IT or Help Desk personnel
- Forgotten Password—Users can reset or retrieve a forgotten password after Identity Management verifies their identity.
- Forgotten User ID—Users can retrieve a forgotten user ID after Identity Management verifies their identity.
