Oracle Identity Manager provides centralized password management for enterprise applications, a feature that you can leverage by provisioning through its connectors. In this way, you can configure a centralized password policy for the enterprise, allowing your users to specify a single password which can then be provisioned to the various targets where passwords are required.
Password reset, password change, and expiration can all be handled through Oracle Identity Manager's self-service support.
See Chapter 6, "User, Account, and Entitlement Provisioning" for more information on supported connectors.
Oracle Enterprise Single Sign-on Password Reset (ESSO-PR) allows users to access their Windows user accounts in case they lose or forget their password, without requiring help desk or technical support, improving the operational efficiency of the enterprise.
