Password Management

Password Management in 01Cloud involves securely storing and managing user passwords.

Password management in 01Cloud involves enforcing strong password policies, encrypting passwords, and supporting additional security measures. Users are encouraged to create strong, unique passwords, regularly update them, and avoid reusing passwords across accounts. Passwords are encrypted to prevent unauthorized access. These measures help safeguard user accounts and protect sensitive data, making sure users can securely access the platform and its resources while reducing the chance of unauthorized access or data breaches.

Password Policies:

  • Password Complexity: 01Cloud encourages users to create strong passwords by enforcing complexity requirements, such as minimum length, combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters.

  • Password History: 01Cloud maintains a password history to prevent users from reusing their previous passwords. This prevents attackers from cycling through old passwords to gain unauthorized access to accounts.

Best Practices for Users:

  • Create Strong Passwords: Users should create strong, unique passwords that are not easily guessable or susceptible to dictionary attacks. Passwords should be a combination of letters, numbers, and special characters.

  • Avoid Password Reuse: Users should avoid reusing passwords across multiple accounts or platforms. Each account should have a unique password to prevent credential stuffing attacks.

  • Regularly Update Passwords: Users should regularly update their passwords, following any password expiration policies set by administrators. Regular password changes help mitigate the risk of password-based attacks.

Steps to change user password from console:

  • Go to Profile section in the console and there is an option called Update Password.
