SAFEGUARD password quality attributes are taken into account now.
To control functional users it is necessary, to
- individualize access to functions
- prohibit the logon to functions via passwords 'from scratch'
- enforce the use of command level security type controls
To really prevent the logon to an ID, the password of that ID has to
be trashed, not simply changed. A password change, performed by a person,
always has the disadvantage that the changing person might remember the
password it typed in.
TrashPW solves this dilemma.
TrashPW really trashes the password of a given GUARDIAN or Alias user ID.
The logic is as follows:
- SUPER.SUPER is allowed to trash the password of
- any GUARDIAN user
- any Alias user
- his own - Group managers are allowed to trash the password of
- any GUARDIAN user, being a member of the group
- any Alias user, being mapped to the group
- his own - An individual GUARDIAN or Alias user can trash his own password.
To prevent an easy trash, TrashPW asks the user two time if he really wants to trash a password.
Once a password is trashed, there is NO WAY to logon to that user by using a password.
