Users enrolled in SSRPM are provided with a “Forgot my password…” link at the bottom of their HelloID or Active Directory login prompt. When users click on this link, they are enabled to:
- Enroll
- Reset a forgotten password
- Change their password
- Update basic Active Directory user info (e.g., contact information)
- Proceed with their onboarding
Once the user clicks to reset their forgotten password, they will be asked a series of security questions to verify their identity. The user will have already set the security question answers when they first enrolled in SSRPM. After answering the security questions, the user will be able to reset their password according to the complexity restrictions configured by the organization’s IT department.

Simply put, “onboarding” refers to the process of getting a new hire up to speed on organizational processes, policies, and with provisioned access to the necessary resources required for their job’s responsibilities. Successful onboarding aims to help new employees quickly become effective within the organization.
Tools4ever’s solutions optimize the business and IT side of onboarding processes that ensure new users’ access to network resources like accounts, applications, and file shares. Above all, SSRPM’s Onboarding module helps ensure the safe transfer of user accounts and passwords to new employees.
SSRPM can be installed, configured, and enabled for users to enroll in a matter of hours.
Password reset requests contribute to significant burdens on two fronts. Numerous password-related helpdesk calls bog down your IT department in menial tickets and diminishes their bandwidth for more impactful tasks. Locked-out users are left unproductive, likely unable to meet deadlines or access necessary applications, resources, and data for meetings, sales calls, and more.
Based on internal surveys of our customers, we’ve seen SSRPM decrease password-related helpdesk calls by as much as 80%.
