Hi Mark, If you have an AD backend then if you enable password history the previous password should not count towards the account lockout threshold. -Jason Jason Todd Network Security Officer Western University of Health Sciences From: The EDUCAUSE Security Constituent Group Listserv [mailto:SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU] On Behalf Of Mark Reboli Sent: Tuesday, September 02, 2014 12:50 PM To: SECURITY () LISTSERV EDUCAUSE EDU Subject: [SECURITY] password change issues I am looking for information on how people handle password change issues. Here is my dilemma: 1. A person changes their password on the system 2. In short order with push and sync other devices (tablet, smart phone, etc) disable the person's account 3. We enable the account by the user calling the helpdesk (we tell them to change other devices passwords and then enable them) We hope they did not miss another push device or we have to repeat step 3. Are others having this issue, how are you getting around all the byod devices that do constant syncs which disable accounts? Thank you and sorry for the dual post. m [Description: MU Arches] Mark Reboli Network/Telcom Manager Misericordia University (570) 674-6753
