Change the default password used to configure the database
After the first connection, it is strongly recommended not to use the default user account to access the application for security reasons. You can either change the default credentials of this account (security@company.com/admin) or create another administrator user and remove the default account. This account has only the role Security Administrator. Its type is No Project Access so it does not count in the license.
