User Object Credential Management - Ensuring operational continuity and security

The User Object Credential Management enables you to securely update the passwords stored within user objects directly from a central point of control. This ensures that changes are applied consistently across both the database and plan instances, guaranteeing operational continuity and better adherence to your security policies.

Previously, updating the credentials stored in user objects was often a manual, multi-step process. These password changes had to be applied separately to the database and then manually propagated to any active plans, a procedure prone to human error and delays. This disconnect could lead to authentication failures for in-flight tasks that rely on these objects, causing unexpected job failures, disrupting critical business processes, and creating potential security compliance gaps.

The introduction of this feature brings significant advantages:
Limit service disruptions
Update credentials for user objects across both the database and all running plan instances with a single action. This prevents authentication failures and ensures your job streams continue to run without interruption.
Strengthen security and compliance
Enforce password policies consistently for the credentials within your user objects and respond quickly to security mandates. Centralized control simplifies audits and demonstrates adherence to your organization's security standards.
Increase operational efficiency
Drastically reduce the time and effort required to manage user object credentials. What was once a complex, multi-system task becomes a single, swift operation, freeing up your team to focus on more strategic initiatives.
User Object Credential Management enables more resilient, secure, and efficient automation.
