Password reset security questions expiration

Hello everyone.

We recently implemented Password Reset in our company and we're using the security questions verification as mandatory, our users have to select 5 questions when they enroll in the Password Reset process, 3 of which are displayed to them when they have to verify themselves, in order to be able to reset their password.

Security team was wondering, is there a way for us to set an expiration date or something like that to those verification questions? for example, "after 6 months of being enrolled into the process the user has to change its security questions" or something like that.

I couldn't find anything in the subject. So anykind of info is appreciated.

Thanks and regards.

Hi,



As of now, only following system properties are available for password reset.



Configure Password Reset properties



But, there is no system property to change security questions every 6 months.


You will have to implement custom logic for prompting user to change security questions every 6 months.

Thanks for your answer Sachin, I understand. In that case my question changes



Do you have any idea of how could we do that? How can we add that feature to our process or our instance?



@all Community: Has anyone implemented anything to add an expiration to security questions?



Regards!.


In password reset process, user need to enroll first and record is created in pwd_enrollment table.

You can create scheduled script to clean user enrollement records from pwd_enrollment table every 6 months so that users will have to enter new security questions   and answers every 6 months.
