SAM Jupiter - Password Management
The Business Challenge
Company employees are relying on various systems and applications in their daily work. As a
security measure, these systems and applications query their users for relevant passwords, which is
tedious for users and a time consuming task for administrators.
The large number of constantly changing passwords leads users to actually write down their passwords, defying the purpose of security policies and control mechanisms.
Forgotten passwords are an annoying productivity obstacle to IT users, who
wish for a simple password to access their IT resources instead of passwords subject to
various rules and validity periods.
These technical barriers need to be removed to enable IT users to effectively concentrate on their job.
The enforcement of password composition rules is an essential concern for revisors and a
criterium for operational compliance with enterprise security policies.
