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.
Regards,
Abhishek Jolly

  • 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.

  • Icloud is synched to the wrong apple ID and the password was unknown to me, after answering the security questions I was able to reset it. Now when I try to login on my ipad to delete the icloud associated to that apple ID it keeps telling me its wrong?

    I bought a new Ipad and backup all my info form ym old one to my itunes. I set it up but now for soem reason by icloud on my new ipad is set up an old apple ID account I have never used. After answering security questions I was able to reset my password but when i try to use it on my new ipad to delete hte icloud it keeps telling me its wrong.
    Any way I can go around it or is there another process I need to do before the ipad starts recognizing hte new password I set for the old apple Id account?

    It sounds like the new iPad, had a previous owner.    If you don't recognize the email for the Apple ID on your iPad, then it was registered to another person.
    If it was, you can't use it and should return it.

    Manage My Apple ID
    Or you can email iTunes Support at iTunes Store Support.
    If all else fails:
      1. Go to: Apple Express Lane;
      2. Under Product Categories choose iTunes;
      3. Then choose iTunes Store;
      4. Then choose Account Management;
      5. Now choose iTunes Store Security and answer the bullet questions, then click
          Continue;
      6. Sign in with your Apple ID and press Continue;
      7. Under Contact Options fill out the information and advise iTunes that you would
          like your security/challenge questions reset;

    You should get a response within 24 hours by email.
    In the event you are unsuccessful then contact AppleCare - Contacting Apple for support and service.
    Another user had success doing the following:
    I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
    Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
      a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
          tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
      b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
          "done", in the upper right corner
      c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
          Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
          should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
          security questions.
      d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
          selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
          should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
          questions.
    It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
    Good Luck friends!

  • HT5312 I forgot the security questions and also the password for security info email of my apple id. Now I want to change the security info email with another. What Should I do?

    I forgot the security questions and also the password (and even account id, sequrity questions,... becouse I didn't use for a long time) for security info email of my apple id. Now I want to change the security info email with another. What Should I do?

    Even if I'm not despertate, creating a new Id is good Idia. But I think I must create another email address also since I can't use the first email adress as an apple id for the new one. That means I should check everyday the new email address also, that is making life complex. Better to try the 1st solution. Thank you very much.

  • Password hint required in password reset through console

    We are using OID to handle our user database. One of the problems we are having is that the forgot password feature through the Oracle Identity Management Provisioning Console doesn't really enforce required fields for password reset. I currently have the orclpasswordhint and orclpasswordhintanswer attributes with the following settings: required, viewable, self-editable, and Password Reset Validation. The problem is that if someone has never set their password hint and answer, it will not ask for them on password reset and will just ask for their email address. While we could probably control this from within the application hooking into OID, we want to be able to force the user to enter this data or be unable to use the console to reset their password.

  • I forgot the answers to my security questions. How can I reset these?

    After owning an iPad 2 for about 7 months, I purchased an iPad 3rd gen.  I tried to purchase an app (PDF Highlighter) and upon doing so I was promoter to answer two security questions "since this is my first purchase on this device." I do not remember the answers to my security questions. How can I reset the answers?
    In addition to this issue, I went into my setting and entered my debit card information in another attempt to purchase the app. Upon doing so I was prompted to verify my payment info. The prompt asked me to enter my security code. I entered the correct code and it comes up invalid. I have tried going into setting and verifying my payment info through there as well, it also says my security code is invalid. How can I fix this issue? The app I am attempting to download is called PDF Highlighter for $6.99.  Thank you for your help.

    If you have a rescue email address set up on your account then you can try going 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 might see an option to send security question reset info to your rescue email address.
    If you don't have a rescue email address set up then go to Express Lane  and select 'iTunes' from the list of 'products' in the middle of the screen.
    Then select 'iTunes Store', and on the next screen select 'Account Management'
    Next choose 'iTunes Store Account Questions' or 'iTunes Store account security' (it appears to vary by country) and fill in that you'd like your security questions/answers reset.
    You should get an email reply within about 24 hours (and check your Spam folder as well as your Inbox)

    Apple ID security issues -
    Account security issues almost always require you to speak directly to an
    Apple representative to securely establish your identity as the account
    holder. You can set it up so that Apple calls you, either immediately or at a
    time convenient to you.
    1. Go to www.apple.com/support
    2. Choose Contact Support and click Contact Us
    3. Choose Other Apple ID Topics and choose the appropriate topic for your
    issue
    4. Follow the onscreen instructions

  • HT1918 i couldn't change security question when i changed password

    I do not remember the security questions...they look different. I can't change them either...I tried what they said to do, change your password and it'll ask for new questions, but it did not do that. Does anyone know how to change the security questions??

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Contact Apple through iTunes Store Support, and explain that you have forgotten your 3 security questions, that you can reset your password, but doing so doesn't reset your security questions.
    Explain that after resetting your password, you are still asked for the answers you have forgotten, before you can gain access to My Apple ID > Manage your account > Password & security, which is where you need to be to change your answers.
    Remember, support will receive hundreds, if not thousands of requests per day, some from people trying it on, others with little explanation and others that are written extremely poorly. Take the time to explain your situation properly, be precise and concise, brief but comprehensive.
