探花大神

Users: Change Your MacOS Password

After you use 探花大神 to encrypt a system, enforce Multi-factor Authentication (MFA), require strong passwords, and scan continuously for malware threats, you want employees to manage their identities and passwords in this well-fortified environment.

There are four passwords on your macOS device that must be kept in sync:

  1. 探花大神 user password - Used to log in to your 探花大神 User Portal.
  2. FileVault (if enabled) - Used to unlock FileVault when your device is started up. In most scenarios, the FileVault password and the device password are the same, but they should be understood as distinctly different.
  3. Device password - Used to log in to your device after FileVault is unlocked.
  4. MacOS Keychain - Used to access passwords, logins, secure notes, etc. that you have saved on your Mac.

You can change your user password in four places:

  • 探花大神 Menu Bar App (recommended)
  • User Portal
  • Upstream Integration (i.e. Okta) that syncs the changed password to 探花大神 and to your device
  • System Settings (least recommended)

Prerequisites:

  • To ensure password sync notifications show up in the 探花大神 tray app, add 探花大神 to the list of apps allowed to send notifications during focus mode on your Mac:
    • Open System Settings and click Focus.
    • Click Do Not Disturb.
    • Under Allowed Notifications, click Allowed Apps.
    • Click + Add and add Jumpcloud.
    • Click Done.
  • If your org is using a third-party MDM provider, your admin must send and you must approve a configuration profile to ensure installation of 探花大神's Endpoint Security extension. See End User Prompt: Approve Your MDM Profile.
    • See the Attached Files section on the right side of this article for a copy of the configuration profile.

Considerations:

  • The 探花大神 passwords you create must adhere to the complexity settings your organization requires for user account passwords. You'll get an error if you attempt to create a non-compliant password. See Manage Password and Security Settings to learn more about complexity requirements.
    • Your password also has to adhere to the password complexity settings of the applications you log in to using 探花大神. If you need help determining the password complexity settings of the applications you use, ask your IT Admin.
  • If your account gives you access to SSO applications, it may take several minutes for your password to update for your SSO applications after you change it in 探花大神.

Note:

When you change your password, any active sessions (User Portal, SSO applications, etc.) will be terminated and you will be prompted to log in again.

On macOS devices, the 探花大神 menu bar app delivers a convenient method for you to change or sync your 探花大神 IdentityOS庐 password.

Note:

The menu bar icon can be hidden by your Admin, and you should contact your Admin if you're unable to locate the menu bar app on your device. Additionally, if your account is managed by Active Directory or Okta, you won't be able to use the app to reset your password.

To change your 探花大神 password in the 探花大神 menu bar app:

  1. Click the 探花大神 logo in the menu bar to open the 探花大神 menu bar app.
  2. Hover over the聽Your device password is up-to-date聽message, then click聽Reset.
  3. In the 探花大神 Password field, enter your current 探花大神 user password.
  4. In the New Password field, enter your new 探花大神 user password.
  5. In the Confirm Password field, enter your new 探花大神 user password again.
  6. If your organization requires an Authentication Method, select Mobile Push or Authenticator Code, then accept the login push request on your mobile device or enter the code from your authentication app. 
  7. Click Save.

After the 探花大神 menu bar app saves your passwords, 探花大神 updates the FileVault and Keychain passwords accordingly.
