Protecting Your Account: About Those Passwords...

Never share it. Your userid and password combination is of value. Anyone who has it can send email on your behalf access your HR and academic records, coursework, etc. Treat your password like your credit/debit card PIN.

IT staff will never ask for your password over the phone, in person or by email.

When you change your password, make sure you change it on your mobile devices too (or the repeated attempts with the old password may lock out your account).
