User Management

Overview

Syndeia Cloud out of the box has a user management system with permissions to allow/deny various operations which include:  

  • user read (enumeration of user list)
  • user creation (signup),
  • user modification (ie: update to assign permissions or change/reset passwords), and 
  • user remove (currently implemented by "disabling" to prevent any breakage of historical references) 

By default Syndeia Cloud has an administrator (super user) named super.user with a password of syn45ia .  

To prevent accidental system lock-outs, the designated super user account cannot be deleted. 

(info) To change who the designated super user is, edit the web-gateway service's application.conf file and alter (or add a) super.user.email = "super.user@intercax.com" line, ex:  super.user.email = "mySuperUserAccountname".  

(warning) For enhanced security we recommend changing the username and password from the default.
