What is password reconciliation?

Password reconciliation happens in the same way on servers, network assets, desktops and banks: Access to devices and accounts is carried out periodically, trying to authenticate with the last password in custody, validating whether the custody remains under the password vault.

That is, senhasegura will validate the device (servers, network assets, desktops and databases) if the password in the vault is correct for authentication.

Verify if the password reconciliation robot is on. Access Settings → Execution process → Password reconciliation

I am trying to find more info about this. I do not remember this being covered much if at all in the academy training nor on the Help Center/Documentation portal. Can anyone help please?
