About Password Manager

Password Manager Overview

Password Manager Overview

One Identity Password Manager (Active Directory Lightweight Services) is a Web-based application that provides an easy-to-implement and use, yet highly secure, password management solution. Users can connect to Password Manager by using their favorite browser and perform password self-management tasks, thus eliminating the need for assistance from high-level administrators and reducing help desk workload. The solution offers a powerful and flexible password policy control mechanism that allows the Password Manager administrator to ensure that all passwords in the organization comply with the established policies.

Password Manager allows managing users that do not have accounts in the Active Directory. For example, using Password Manager you can manage passwords for contractors and other external users.

Integration with One Identity Quick Connect Sync Engine, Redistributable Secret Management Service facilitates cross-platform password synchronization that enables Password Manager to change.

The key features and benefits of Password Manager include:

  • Global access. Password Manager provides 24/7 and 365 days access to the Self-Service site from intranet computers as well as via Internet from any most common browser. The solution supports flexible access modes and logon options.
  • Strong data encryption and secure communication. The solution relies on industry-leading technologies for enhanced communication security and data encryption.
