My work has a bunch of interconnected systems that all stop working automatically when I change my password, and it takes days to months to make it go back to normal
@GlytchMeister Would you be able to set those up under another account - maybe specific to those systems - that could continue to run regardless of your personal password? Your employer will certainly be in trouble when you leave and your account is deactivated.
Oh they’re all company-wide systems, I didn’t build them or anything like that
They all just run on a hodgepodge system that supposedly makes them use the same password, but in practice, you usually have to manually update a few, and then you gotta update a bunch of saved passwords in the browser and usually have to sign out and back into a couple Microsoft programs, usually outlook and something from MS Office.
@GlytchMeister what a mess!
Welcome to corporate Information Technology, where the security is made up and the updates don’t matter
@GlytchMeister
That sounds incredibly annoying. At least my employer uses SSO and the change is seamless.
I'm just annoyed that they keep using very outdated security practices.

Mine essentially tried to cobble together SSO and ended up with the SSO equivalent of the Hunchback of Notre Dame
