How To
Summary
Administrators who manage QRadar user accounts through the command-line interface (CLI) can change the password of a specific user using standard Linux commands. This method is useful when the GUI is unavailable or the password cannot be changed through the web interface. The process requires executing a command as the root user to securely update the credentials. Once completed, the user can log in with the new password immediately.
