Or... We could just go in and change it for them ;-)
Ken. -----Original Message----- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of John Baker Sent: Tuesday, March 12, 2013 3:56 PM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Mid Tier administration password Hello, I found this couple of paragraphs in an SSO Plugin newsletter and thought it was worth sharing. We see a lot of Mid Tier deployments and have noticed that the Mid Tier configuration password is almost never changed from the default value, arsystem. This poses a security risk, particularly when running a Mid Tier on the Internet - it doesn't take long to find a few public Mid Tiers with the default administration password. SSO Plugin displays a warning on the status page when the default password is set, so if you haven't changed your Mid Tier administration password, why not change it now?
