Secure ACS 4.1

[cosimotodaro]

Hi all,

Can you please help with the following.

We have a Cisco Secure ACS v4.1.  A number of Groups have been created under the "Group Setup".  Each group has a number of users in it.  The Password Authentication is ACS Internal Database.  I cannot see the password of the users.  Users sometimes forget their passwords and since I cannot see what it is, I end up resetting the password and giving the user a new password.

My question is:  is there a procedure/a way to actually recover the user password?

Thank you

Hi,

Unfortunately no.

ACS 4 uses AES and this process is non reversible.

Hi,

Thank you for your prompt reply.  That's what I suspected.  I searched the Internet for hours and I could not find anything about it.
