Ensure That 'Notify all admins when other admins reset their password?' is set to 'Yes'
Why This Matters
Administrator accounts are prime targets for attackers. When an admin password is reset without proper notification, it could indicate a compromised account or malicious activity. Enabling this notification ensures all global administrators are aware of password reset events, allowing them to verify the legitimacy of the action and investigate any suspicious changes promptly.
