## Configuration
{{< config-alert-example >}}
```yaml {title="configuration.yml"}
identity_validation:
elevated_session: {}
reset_password: {}
```
## Options
The two areas protected by the validation methods are:
- [Elevated Session](elevated-session.md) which prevents a logged in user from performing privileged actions without
first proving their identity.
- [Reset Password](reset-password.md) which prevents an anonymous user from performing the password reset for a user
without first proving their identity.
