Login & Password Reset
Learn how to securely log into AuraDash using your standard credentials, and manage your account recovery and password settings.
Login
First-Time Setup
When launching AuraDash for the first time, use the following default admin credentials:
Standard Authentication
Once the initial setup is complete, you can securely access the platform using your updated username and password credentials.
Failed Attempt Lockout
To prevent brute-force attacks, AuraDash enforces a rate limit of 5 failed login attempts per minute. If this threshold is exceeded, the system will automatically block further login requests.
Session Lifetime
Enabling the "Remember Me" option keeps your session active on the device for 30 days. Otherwise, sessions automatically expire after 7 days.
Password Reset
Recovery Process & Rate Limits
To reset a forgotten password, users can initiate a secure self-service recovery with a rate limit of 5 reset attempts per minute:
- Click the "Reset Password" button on the login screen.
- Enter your registered email address.
- Receive a verification code sent to your email. If the email doesn't arrive, you may request a new code once every minute.
- Enter the verification code and set your new password.
Strong Password Requirements
AuraDash enforces global security standards (based on OWASP guidelines) for all password updates to prevent credential stuffing:
- Minimum Length: Must be at least 8 characters long.
- Character Variety: Requires at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one number, and one special character (e.g.,
@, #, $, %, &, *). - Common Pattern Detection: Passwords containing easy-to-guess patterns, dictionary words, or user-related identifiers (like username or email parts) will be automatically rejected.

Common Errors During Login
This message appears if the email or password you entered is incorrect. Double-check your spelling and try again.

If you try to log in or reset your password more than 5 times in a single minute, the system will temporarily lock you out to keep your account safe.
