System Password

Important:
System Password management policy
Basic rules have to be applied to the different passwords allowing an OMC connection to the
system. It is recommended to change the default Installer password for OMC Expert,
Administrator password for OMC EasyPlus and Operator password for OMC Easy.
Remember these passwords can also be used from the MMC-Station.
The following are the recommendations for good password management:
-
Implement company policy to regularly update all system passwords
-
Regularly change the passwords
-
Avoid the use of simple passwords such as 12345678, 11111111, 00000000 etc...
-
Never choose a word from everyday language. Attackers can use special dictionary cracking
software to retrieve these
-
Never choose a word that is closely related to you:
•
your company name
•
your name
•
your wife's maiden name
•
the name of your children or your pet,
•
your favourite hobby, etc...
-
Choose a different password for each connection level
-
Do not disclose passwords to other persons/colleagues
-
Never write down your password. The first thing an attacker will do is rummage through your
personal belongings.
