What is Vouching?

 
Vouching is an optional feature in myPassword that allows a manager or other authorized individual to authenticate an account on behalf of another user who has forgotten the answers to their security questions or has yet to complete a password reset profile.

Leveraging customizable, relationship-based roles, you can set up rules where different users may be allowed different vouchers, and receive different messages to indicate who can vouch for them. Since rules can leverage customizable Relationship-Based Roles, a voucher can also be based on relationships defined in the directory, such as Manager or another custom relationship that you create.
How Vouching Works
  1. Vouching feature must be enabled and at least one voucher rule set

  2. User logon attempt fails due to forgotten password or inaccurate responses to password reset profile questions

  3. Authorized voucher enters their credentials

  4. User can logon

  5. Optionally, email notification of the vouching event can be sent to a specified address

"When a student can’t logon to the network, both the teacher and student may lose valuable teaching and learning time. We are trying to reduce downtime and disruptions caused by something as simple as a forgotten or mistyped password. We are wasting a student’s time and a parent’s resources if we allow a student to sit idle because of a lost or forgotten password, which can easily be reset securely and immediately using myPassword."
