Password Management Software

Complete Control Over Password Management

Quest Password Manager enables the end user to reset forgotten passwords securely, allowing administrators to implement stronger password policies while reducing the help desk workload.

The pain of password management - the single most common support issue - is becoming more pervasive. An administrator's preference for more complex passwords that must be changed more frequently increases the likelihood that users will forget them. As a result, many organizations face the challenge of increasing security while reducing support costs.

Password Manager provides a simple, secure set of password management utilities that allows end users to reset forgotten passwords and unlock their user accounts themselves. Password Manager accommodates the widest possible range of organization requirements and data security standards.

Password Manager supports Windows 2000/2003/2008 Active Directory environments and connected systems. Organizations no longer have to sacrifice security to reduce costs.

  • Reduces help desk workload and support costs
  • Increases security by reducing the risk of users writing passwords down, eliminating help desk errors and making password guessing and break-ins more difficult
  • Streamlines administration through enforcement of password policies
  • Allows tracking and reporting on all password reset activity

  • Improves end user satisfaction
  • Eases password reset through an optional Graphical Identification and Authentication DLL (GINA) extension
