User verification is done with alternate security credentials.

High user adoption rate
FastPassCorp customers have often proved that adoption rates beyond 80%—even 85–95%—are achievable with the right solution and implementation of best practices.
SSPR is Easily implemented and compliant
Through FastPass process, all the configuration, customization and setup can be done, limiting the programming or scripting of the customer solution.
Easy Implementation and High Security
You can install the FastPass application at your own server or from the FastPass Cloud. FastPass must have the privileged password for the password directory. Service password reset or privileged password reset is not the role of FastPass.
MSP organizations can use FastPass as a multi-tenant solution supporting many customers from just one FastPass server.
The administrator can with analytics easily plan the monitoring of users’ use of FastPass. How many resets per day? How many users have enrolled? What user is a frequent visitor of the service? This will be part of the auditing process for the controller.
Considerations for Self-Service Password Reset implementation
With FastPass SSPR Manager customers reach 85-90% adoption rate. This translates to a very strong business case for users and the helpdesk when calls to the help desk for password assistance practically disappears!
With FastPass the users can reset passwords and do account unlock. FastPass covers all enterprise password types like Active Directory, Azure, SAP, Oracle, IBM and many others.
Management must organize the complete process to achieve the wanted productivity gains, which is the result of the functionality in FastPass SSPR and the FastPass Best Practice description:
Enrollment is needed for the registration of the users personal and secret information with the tool. FastPass can force users to enrol or execute an automatic e-mail invitation process. The two methods combined secures that all users get enrolled.
FastPass offers many authentication methods to ease the authentication for users. The principle is that users have free choice between the different authentication types approved by the security officer.
FastPass SSPR also offers multi-factor authentication (MFA) for special users and situations like remote users. The methods include: Question/answers, SMS, TOTP, Smartcard, Authenticators, RSA and more.
Users can access FastPass from domain PCs and from a remote mobile device or from any browser. With Windows passwords, it only works when the user can reset the password from his normal PC before Windows log-in, as this is exactly the user’s problem! With the use of the FastPass PC-client users can use SSPR even though the PC is ‘dead’!
Having an SSPR Tool means
Helping your users
Supporting the Help Desk
Security for your Company
Frequently Asked Questions
No - not for all users. If you have the users cellphone numbers, FastPass can use the number from AD or in other ways uploaded to FastPass. Answers from otrher systems to some simple questions can be uploaded too. Remember however, that the value of the verification process depends on the fact that ONLY THE USER knows the answers!
Yes. The PC must have access to internet and your company must have a VPN connection. For more details click here.
Two ideas. One: Let users formulate their own questions – it is then more likely that they can remember the answer. Two: Formulate questions where the user can find the answer instead of remember it. As examples: What is the number on your private key to your house? Give the four digits on your favorite credit card position 5-8.

FastPass supports more than 30 different languages. You can per user group configure which language to use. In addition, FastPass automatically adapts to the choice of language in the browser.
For end user language support, click here.
The most secure verification is done by someone who knows the user and who is trusted by the organization. You can configure FastPass to force manager approval for selected groups with security sensitive users. Instead of manager approval it can be a trusted colleague.
Functionally you can configure the same solution for the users in both situations. We recommend that your IT-strategy should decide whether to go for in-house or cloud. The FastPass Cloud solution has however access to more operational data than the on-premise version, so the dashboards and reporting with the cloud offer more.
For AD-only implementations we see it done within a timeframe of 1-2 weeks. For complex installations with IBM mainframes and SAP we see that it might take up to 3 months. With FastPass Cloud the technical part is even shorter.
With FastPass a POC can be up and running within a day. With additional target systems (SAP/Oracle etc.) expect to add some more days.
FastPass easily integrates with any ITSM system. (e.g. Remedy, Microfocus Service Request Center Software, Service Now, Wendia POB).
