Requirement: How to intimate the end-users to change their passwords, as per password policy specifications ?
Issue: There are thousands of end-users. We need to intimate (continuously) the existing end-users till they change the password as per password policy. But, we need to extract their eMail IDs from database. But, we don't have much time to extract Mail IDs from database; and send mails. Even if we try this, End-users may ignore the mails. So, how to resolve this issue...?
Issue Resolution: I have suggested the following minor application changes to overcome this issue.
Once end-user successfully login the application, application navigates to the "Change Password" webpage. Instructions/Precautions about password policy would be available in the same "Change Password" webpage. Once end-user changes the password as per password policy specifications, end-user can navigate to Home page of the application. Changing password in this way is an optional task. End-user can navigate to other menu without changing the password. But, application alerts the end-user about password policy, till end-user updates the password as per specifications.
In case of new end-users, application will take care about password policy at the time of registration.
So, we need not extract mail-IDs from database, and also, need not send any mail(s)/reminders to end-users manually. This is nothing but process automation.
