A default user named ‘admin’ comes by default with the ADSS Server and is linked with the ‘Administrator’ role. This user can not be deleted from the system and so the role also cannot be deleted from the system either. This is to make sure that the situation does not arise where all users are deleted from the ADSS Server making the system inaccessible. Therefore ADSS Server must have at least one user called ‘admin’. The default certificate for this admin user should be updated and then securely held for emergency use.
