Specops Password Sync

Password Synchronization

Wouldn’t your world be better if you didn’t have to remember the multitude of passwords for your various user accounts?

Specops Password Sync makes this happen by allowing you to change your password for all systems in the place where it makes the most sense – Windows!

Most users are used to changing their Windows password at regular intervals. But why don’t they change their other passwords as often? Typically because these systems and online services doesn’t require them to do so, which exposes whatever data is stored in them to brute force attacks.

By synchronizing the Windows password with your other systems you ensure that these passwords also get changed regularly, and perhaps more importantly – that the same set of complexity rules apply across all systems.
