Secret question for password resets

Is there a way, without customization, to allow users of R11i to reset their password after first authenticating through a "secret question" (e.g. "what was your first pet's name" and the like) ? This is to bypass the email mechanism in the standard "forgot password" link as not all our users here have access to email (e.g. some are causual workers with external gmail/yahoo accounts which are blocked by the intranet and personal wireless access is unreliable).
Thanks for any comments. If not possible in R11i, would it be possible in R12 e.g. integrated with OID/OAM/OVD Fusion Middleware?

  • Security question for password reset

    Hi,
    I want to reset my apple password, but I cant remember the security question's answer. I don't see the link to send a reset email, which means I don't have a rescue address, how can I reset the security questions?

    In that case you will need to contact Apple support: Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
    The following is from If you forgot the answers to your Apple ID security questions
    If you can't reset your security questions
    Contact Apple Support in either of these circumstances:
    You don't see the link to send a reset email, which means you don't have a rescue address.
    You see the link to send a reset email, but you don't have access to email at the rescue address.

    i have a probllem a lack of access link secret question for email alternative

    Hey there Mody18,
    It sounds like you are either not receiving a password reset link to your email address when you are trying to reset your security questions, or you do not have a recovery email address and need assistance resetting your security questions. I recommend reaching out to our Account Security team with the followint article:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Hello  I forgot my secret questions for  my account

    Hello
    I forgot my secret questions for  my account

    When selecting passwords, make sure it's one that you will NEVER forget AND no one else can figure out. 
    Old school--- > Print it out & keep in a safe place.  A place that ONLY you know about AND never forget.
    New school---> Get a password manager utility.  Highly recommend 1Password which is shareware.  Do a Google search for free password managers.

  • Use OIM 11g UI directly for password resets

    1. What is the best practice in using OIM for password resets? Two options that i have usually heard of are writing a custom app or UI and use OIM APIs for password resets. The other is use OIM UI directly.
    Are there any other options.
    2. Of the two options mentioned above, are there any concerns if we want to expose the OIM UI password reset link to internet- example, post the OIM UI link across the company's website which is available to everybody?

    People,
    Any help will be really appreciated. I am looking for some suggestions in this regards. Thanks

  • Encryption algrothim used for Password reset question and answer

    We are trying to write a custom interface to the Password reset service.
    The interface is supposed to allow the user to enter a question and answer, then using SAM SDK write the value to the iplanet-am-user-password-reset-question-answer.
    The problem is SAM saves the values encrypted, so do any one know the encryption algorithm used and what is key or they are specified.
    Thnaks

    Only you and Apple know your secret question.  See if changing the password via email will allow access to your account.. Then you can chnag yur secret question. See:

  • Security question feature required for password reset

    Hi,
    When ever SAP user forgets his password and he wants to reset his password, We need an option in logon screen to request the user to enter the answer for the security question and when he enters the correct answer, his ID should get reset and a new password should be mailed to his email id.
    Appreciate your Ideas on this one.
    Thanks

    Wild solution...
    1) Create a New User ID, which will be used for Just resetting the password based on the security question. This ID will have a password which everybody will know.
    This ID will have only few authorizations.
    2) Create a Custom Program which will take the User ID and the Question. Also some way of storing the Answer in some table (encrypted).
    Based on the ID, the question of the user will be displayed. Based on the Input by the user, the answer will be checked.
    3) If the answer is correct, reset the password and send a mail to the user id of the user. (Solution for resetting the password needs some analysis) The custom table will store user id, question, answer and the email id to which the email has to be sent.
    Reward Points if useful.

  • How can i change email address for security questions and password resets

    I've noticed that my password reset requests are going to an old email acount. In fact, i am not sure where they are going.
    the real issue is that i don't see a way to change it when i am logged in (it took me many tries to actually log back in) to my apple id account.
    I've changed alternate email accounts, but again i don't see a way to change my destination email account for security section of the account.
    Also i would rather reset these via text (ATT has this option for my cell phone account reset and i love it).  I don't see an option like that from Apple at all.
    Any suggestions and help will be much appreciated. Don't want to struggle with password resets every time i need to get in.

    If you're able to supply two of your security answers, click here and follow the instructions to change your rescue email address.
    If not, you need to contact Apple.

  • HT5312 I want to restore the secret question for my camels Store

    I was restored to my secret question in the Apple Store
    <Email Edited by Host>

    We are fellow users here on these forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support or Apple - I've asked the hosts to remove your email address from your post.
    If you have a rescue email address (which is not the same thing as an alternate email address) set up on your account then steps 1 to 5 on the page that you posted from should let you reset them : go to https://appleid.apple.com/ and click 'Manage your Apple ID' on the right-hand side of that page and log into your account, then click on 'Password and Security' on the left-hand side of that page and on the right-hand side you should see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address (you won't be able to add one until you can answer 2 of your questions) then you will need to contact iTunes Support / Apple to get the questions reset.
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
    When they've been reset (and if you don't already have a rescue email address) you can then use the steps half-way down the page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

  • IdM Anonymous user sessions for password resets

    I am currently working on an update to a self service password reset customization through the IdM anonymous user interface. I am having issues with SIM not closing the anonymous sessions, once a user attempts an anonymous reset. Anytime one of the idm/user/anon****.jsp pages are accessed SIM logs in as the "Reset" user, so then any user that tries to go back to update their challenge questions, gets "...view acess denied to subject Reset...", as if SIM doesn't relize they are back in their user session. Question:
    1. If I use any anon***.jsp pages for any process/workflow launches, for self service, must I handle the logoff of that anonymous session? Currently it looks like a custom logoff and redirect is working, but I was wondering if this is the preferred way to approach this?

    Yes, solved a long time ago but yes, I did find a fix for this. Turns out we had multiple issues but did work through them.
    First, make sure the LDAP user is NOT Directory Manager or Admin or ANY other ID used for multiple purposes such as a privileged user that also makes changes via other tools. I created a new user in LDAP only for IDM purposes and give it the permissions needed: uid=idmsync,..... The permissions we gave were in essence the same as Directory manager as IDM is used in our case to manage LDAP as well.
    Then add in the listening resource to exclude any changes from the uid=idmsync user.
    In the changelog stream then all changes by IDM come down as idmsync. But other changes will come through as directory manager or someone else. But by filtering idmsync changes you prevent an infinite loop. eg. IDM sets LDAP generates change to IDM sets LDAP generates change to IDM... However other user changes will be processed without the infinite looping.
    From an efficiency perspective, we also spent time refining the active sync forms. But all worked well by production turnover, which was well over a year ago.
