The Monkey shuts off either when it can't find new victims, or when it has exceeded the quota of victims as defined in the configuration.
|

|

## How to reset the password?
|
||||
|
||||
On your first access of Monkey Island server, you'll be prompted to create an account. If you forgot the credentials you
|
||||
entered or just want to change them, you need to manually alter the `server_config.json` file. On Linux, this file is
|
||||
located on `/var/monkey/monkey_island/cc/server_config.json`. On windows, it's based on your install directory (typically
|
||||
`C:\Program Files\Guardicore\Monkey Island\monkey_island\cc\server_config.json`). Reset the contents of this file back to
|
||||
|
||||
```json
|
||||
{
|
||||
"server_config": "password",
|
||||
"deployment": "windows"
|
||||
}
|
||||
```
|
||||
Leave the deployment option unchanged (it might be "vmware" or "linux" in your case). Then reset the Island process
|
||||
(`sudo systemctl restart monkey-island.service` for linux, restart program for windows). Go to the island's URL and create
|
||||
a new account.
|
||||
|
||||
## Should I run the Monkey continuously?
|
||||
|
||||
Yes! This will allow you to verify that no new security issues were identified by the Monkey since the last time you ran it.
