Master Reset and Master Unlock by Using OTP Configuration

Read Complete Release Notes

Feature released in SummitAI Platform (Sierra SP1, Password Management)

What's New?

While performing Master Reset and Master Unlock for users, an additional layer of security is added with OTPs. OTPs are generated and sent to the users' registered mobile numbers, which the users need to enter when an Admin is performing Master Password Reset or Master Account Unlock using the SummitAI Password Management module (see: Master Reset and Master Unlock).

Configuration 

A new, Admin, option is added in the OTP Configuration For drop-down list on the SECURITY QUESTION MAPPING page (Admin > Advanced > Password Management > Security Question Mapping). Now, the Admin can Master Reset and Master Unlock the End Users account by using the OTP option. If the OTP Configuration For field is selected as Admin:

  • The End Users are notified (based on Keyword Message configurations) when Admin is resetting the password or unlocking the account.
  • The End Users need to share the received OTP with Admin. Using this OTP, the Admin can complete the Master Reset and Master Unlock for the End Users account.
