Password Reset
Password Reset is the controlled process of replacing a user's password when it is forgotten, expired, or needs to be changed.
Definition
Password Reset is the process used to issue a new password or allow a user to re-establish access when their current password is unavailable or no longer valid. In IAM, reset mechanisms must balance usability, support efficiency, and security assurance because weak reset processes can undermine otherwise strong authentication controls.
The Ariovis perspective
Authentication strength should match the risk of the journey rather than impose the same friction everywhere. Ariovis looks for a balance between security, maintainability and user experience.
