our core password management features.

Identity Claim

Fischer Identity’s Identity Claim feature is a secure, self-service onboarding solution that empowers users to initiate access to their accounts without IT involvement and with ease. With Fischer Identity Claim, organizations eliminate onboarding delays, reduce IT burden, and enhance identity assurance from day one ensuring identity onboarding is not only faster, but smarter and more secure.

Guided Self-Service Onboarding

Our user-friendly self-service experience walks users through each step of identity claiming—from verifying their identity to setting up a password and recovery options. Fischer reduces onboarding friction while maintaining full security alignment, helping organizations accelerate Time to Value while lowering helpdesk load.

Secure Identity Onboarding Verification

Fischer’s Identity Claim begins with secure identity verification tailored to your environment. Whether through email, SMS, institutional lookup, or integrated multifactor authentication (MFA), Fischer ensures that only legitimate users can initiate onboarding. This eliminates manual account creation and ensures password management starts with verified, policy-aligned access.

Password Synchronization Across Applications

Upon claiming their identity and setting a password, Fischer Identity can immediately propagate that password to all connected systems — such as Active Directory, LDAP, cloud apps, and ERP platforms — ensuring consistency and reducing confusion caused by fragmented credentials.

Audit-Ready Logging

All identity claim activities are captured in Fischer’s audit log, including verification attempts, claim code usage, and password creation. This ensures full traceability, supports compliance reporting, and provides administrators with visibility into the onboarding process.

Enforce complexity requirements

To prevent weak and easily guessable passwords, Fischer Identity enforces strong complexity rules across all user populations. Administrators can define custom policies requiring minimum character length, the inclusion of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. These rules ensure that passwords meet modern security standards and reduce the risk of brute force or dictionary-based attacks.

Password Expiration enforcement

Fischer Identity supports configurable password expiration policies that require users to reset their passwords at defined intervals—daily, monthly, quarterly, or annually. This reduces the window of opportunity for compromised credentials to be exploited. Administrators can set different expiration schedules based on user roles, risk levels, or compliance requirements, aligning with standards such as HIPAA, PCI-DSS, or NIST.

Preventing reuse of old passwords

To eliminate the risk of users cycling through a small set of familiar passwords, Fischer Identity enables password history enforcement. This feature remembers a defined number of previously used passwords and prevents users from reusing them during password resets. By requiring truly new credentials, the system ensures stronger password hygiene and limits vulnerability from previously compromised credentials.

Dark Web Breach Check for Compromised Passwords

Fischer Identity adds an extra layer of security by checking user-submitted passwords against known data breaches using HaveIBeenPwned’s secure API. After validating against your organization’s password policy, a secondary check determines if the password has appeared in any public breach databases. If found compromised, the user is immediately prompted to choose a new, secure password—helping prevent credential stuffing attacks and strengthening your overall access posture.

Password Policy Enforcement

Fischer Identity’s Password Policy Enforcement ensures every user follows robust, organization-wide security standards. By enforcing configurable rules for password complexity, expiration, history, and breach validation, organizations can eliminate weak or reused credentials and reduce their attack surface. Whether meeting internal best practices or external compliance mandates, Fischer Identity empowers you to secure access at the first line of defense—strong, intelligent password controls.

Password Reset and Recovery

Fischer Identity’s Self-Service Password Management solution gives users complete control over their credentials while upholding strong security policies. From secure password resets and account unlocks to intuitive recovery workflows, users can independently manage their access—anytime, from any device. With built-in identity verification, audit logging, and configurable enforcement of password policies, Fischer reduces helpdesk tickets, streamlines support operations, and improves the user experience while ensuring compliance and minimizing risk.

Self-Service Password Reset

Fischer Identity’s self-service password reset feature empowers users to reset their own passwords securely, 24/7, without IT assistance. Users are guided through an intuitive reset process that complies with your organization’s security policies. This not only reduces helpdesk call volume by up to 80% but also ensures continuity of access for all your users.

Administrative (On Behalf Of) Password Reset

Allows authorized administrators, service desk agents, and designated personnel to securely reset user passwords on behalf of others, without compromising compliance or audit requirements. This capability is critical for scenarios where users are unable to access self-service tools—such as during onboarding, lockouts, or leave of absence—and ensures minimal disruption to productivity.

Identity Verification

To protect against unauthorized resets, Fischer Identity incorporates secure identity verification into every self-service password reset. Users must verify their identity using configurable methods like Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA), security questions, or one-time passcodes. This ensures only the rightful account owner can initiate a reset—maintaining security without sacrificing convenience.

Account Unlock & Recovery

Locked out of an account? With Fischer Identity, users can unlock their accounts through a secure self-service recovery process—no helpdesk ticket required. Our seamless interface guides users through verification and unlock steps quickly, restoring access while maintaining full audit visibility. The result: faster access restoration, fewer IT interruptions, and an improved user experience.

audit logging & Reporting

Fischer Identity’s Self-Service Password Management solution includes comprehensive audit logging and reporting capabilities that ensure every password-related action is tracked, time-stamped, and attributed to a verified user. Whether a user resets a password, unlocks an account, or fails identity verification, Fischer captures the full context of the event for auditing and compliance purposes, including originating IP address. These detailed logs support internal security reviews, streamline external audits, and help demonstrate adherence to regulatory requirements like FERPA, HIPAA, and PCI-DSS. Built-in reporting tools enable administrators to quickly generate actionable insights and maintain a transparent, accountable access environment.
