    Account Management, Authentication, and Password Management is a tricky process. One will find that developers and product managers usually ignore this basic concept. Here we’ll be sharing best practices to easily secure the user accounts in an enterprise.

    These tools help an enterprise in creating and managing the accounts of all the employees. So, let’s read about some of the ways of securing a user account below.

    Conclusion

    Hash the passwords

    The important thing in account management is securing the sensitive information of users. The first thing that this sensitive information contains is the password.

    An enterprise should treat this data as the most sacred piece of information. To protect this information, enterprises should design a system that adapts easily.

    It can blur/hide the password as soon as you enter it. If your password is being shown in plain text, then something is wrong with your system.

    Don’t have unreasonable rules for usernames

    Some sites and services ask for a username that is longer than two or three characters and does not have any whitespace at the beginning and end of the username.

    These are the basic requirements that one asks from the users. But few sites go overboard with requirements. This gets quite annoying for many users.

    Although it provides few shortcuts to developers, the users are the ones who suffer. If your account service also has strict rules, then you need to change your compliance system, or you should assign a user-friendly name.

    Allow the users to change their username

    Many organizations do not allow users to change their usernames. It is a good practice not to allow users to change their usernames quickly, but it might be a little annoying for long-term users.

    So instead, what an organization can do is allow a certain number of times the user can change their username.

    User Identity Validity System

    There should be a system to validate the user’s account. Enterprises should make it a point to validate the user account with the user’s contact info so that no one can use it.

    This step should be done as soon as the user account is created. This is because the users might create a typo in their contact info.

    So, to ensure that users do not spend the majority of time rectifying the error, these details should be validated as soon as possible.

    Conclusion

    User account protection is the most important concept to ensure that no user information is leaked anywhere. Many organizations take this concept lightly.

    But they should take this concept seriously and use tools that would help them keep the user’s account safe.

    With the help of this tool, one can mitigate the risk of any data breach. Apart from using this tool, organizations should also keep in mind to follow the above tips for protecting the user accounts of their employees.
