Authentication provides security by verifying that a user has permission to access the system. When you log in, your username-password pair is validated against the list of registered users.
Authentication can be done using native authentication or one the the following methods presented in the subsequent sections:
- Two-factor authentication, including FIDO, TOTP, and Yubikey
- Single Sign-On (SSO)
- Duo Security
Change your native authentication password
- In the Username drop-down, click Change Password to display the Change Password screen.
- Enter your new password and click Update.
