Identity Manager is a comprehensive Identity management solution that provides secure access to web and enterprise applications. Identity Manager also provides seamless single sign-on across technical and organizational boundaries.
Self Service Password Reset integrates with Identity Manager 4.5 with the latest service pack to manage passwords for all the users who access the identity applications. This integration is possible if Self Service Password Reset is installed with Identity Manager 4.5 by using Integrated Installer, or if Self Service Password Reset is installed as a standalone product and configured with Identity Manager 4.5. When a user enters the credentials to access an identity application, the request is sent to Self Service Password Reset and the user is allowed to access the web pages depending on the password policy that is defined for the user.
IMPORTANT:To have Self Service Password Reset 4.0 work with Identity Manager 4.5 with the latest service pack, you must install Patch Update 1 or later for Self Service Password Reset 4.0. For more information, see Adding a Patch Update.
