Changing AppScan Source user passwords

To be able to change an AppScan® Source user password, you must have Manage Users permissions and the change must be made in AppScan Source for Analysis. If you do not have this permission, have your administrator change your password for you, following the instructions in this topic. If your AppScan Enterprise Server is configured to use LDAP authentication or Windows™ authentication, this topic does not apply.

About this task

Important: This topic applies only if you have upgraded to AppScan Source version 10.0.2 or higher from a 10.0.1 or earlier version of the product. New installations of AppScan Source version 10.0.2 do not have this functionality; all user administration of new AppScan Source installations occurs in AppScan Enterprise.

Procedure

  1. In AppScan Source for Analysis, select Admin > Manage Users from the main workbench menu.
  2. The Manage Users dialog box lists existing AppScan Source users. To change the password for one of these users, edit the user information by completing one of these tasks:
    • Double-click the user.
    • Right-click the user and choose Edit User.
    • Select the user and click the Edit User button.
    Note: You cannot change the password of an AppScan Enterprise Server user from AppScan Source.
  3. In the Edit User dialog box, enter a new password and then type the password again in the Confirm Password field.
  4. Click OK to change the password.
