Considerations After Resetting the password

Once the password reset is successful, existing active connections will remain unaffected. However, users must log in again with the new password for any new sessions. To ensure a smooth transition and maintain security, consider the following:

• Update Stored Credentials: To avoid connection issues, update applications and services using the database with the new password.

• Verify Access: To confirm if the update was successful, test the new credentials by logging in.

• Monitor for Unauthorized Access: Check database logs for any failed login attempts, as old credentials may still be in use.
