SafeNet eTokens are supplied with an initial default Token Password: 1234567890.
To ensure strong, two-factor security, it is important for the user to change the initial Token Password to a private password as soon as the new token is received.
When a Token Password has been changed, the new password is used for all token applications involving the token. It is the user’s responsibility to remember the Token Password. Without it, the user cannot use the token.
The token’s Password Quality feature enables the administrator to set certain complexity and usage requirements for the password.
