You can enable an additional option to protect a user account from unauthorized modification. If this option is enabled, modifying user account settings requires authorization of the user with the rights for modification.

To enable or disable account protection from unauthorized modification:

  1. In the main menu, go to Users & rolesUsers & groups, and then select the Users tab.
  2. Click the name of the internal user account for which you want to specify account protection from unauthorized modification.
  3. In the user settings window that opens, select the Authentication security tab.
  4. On the Authentication security tab, select the Request authentication to check for permission to modify this account option if you want to request credentials every time when account settings are changed or modified. Otherwise, select the Allow users to modify this account without additional authentication option.
  5. Click the Save button.
