RabbitMQ user and password management

The default account name of RabbitMQ is guest and the password is guest. This means that visitors can log in and access RabbitMQ without any verification. This is a very dangerous and unsafe configuration because anyone can log in and access your RabbitMQ server and read or send data.

Therefore, be sure to change the default account name and password after installing RabbitMQ. Do not use weak passwords and it is highly recommended to enable authentication mechanisms.

# First log in to the RabbitMQ command line interfacesudo rabbitmqctl list_users

# Modify the password of the guest usersudo rabbitmqctl change_password guest NewPassword
