Logging In to the Database Encryption System

The database encryption system provides a web-based management console for administering the entire system. This includes:

  • User Permission Management
  • Business system encryption/decryption
  • Sensitive Data Discovery
  • Operational auditing, etc.

The Management Console is the most critical management interface for the entire data encryption system.

The web-based management console serves as the administrative interface for the database encryption system; all primary system operations are performed through this console.

Prerequisite

  • You have already set a password for the sysadmin user when purchasing an encrypted instance. If you forget this password, please refer to the Reset Administrator Login Password section to reset the sysadmin user's password.
  • You have purchased an encrypted instance. Click More in the Operation column of the target instance, then click Reset Password from the pop-up menu to set an initial password for the secadmin and audadmin users. For detailed instructions on resetting passwords, please refer to Reset Administrator Login Password.

  8. After your first login, you will need to change the default password; for detailed instructions, please refer to the Change Login Password.

    During ongoing use, we recommend changing your password regularly to ensure login security.

Change Login Password

Regularly changing your passwords ensures that previously leaked or stolen passwords become completely invalid, thereby mitigating the risks of account compromise arising from credential stuffing attacks, Trojan horse threats, or leftover credentials on outdated devices. This helps reduce the likelihood of privacy or financial theft and provides ongoing protection for your account security; we recommend users change their passwords periodically. If you forget your password, you can reset it; for detailed instructions, please refer to the Reset Administrator Login Password.

  1. In the Web Console, hover your mouse over the username in the top-right corner to display the Change Password dropdown menu, as shown in Figure 6.
