The PostgreSQL user provider is designed to extend native PostgreSQL capabilities by enabling auditable password change operations.
As PostgreSQL does not offer built-in support for logging password modifications, this provider bridges that gap by generating detailed audit logs for such events. Its integration supports improved security oversight and helps organizations meet compliance requirements related to privileged account management.
