Password Security

  • For security, users should avoid reusing previous passwords and should not use the same password as their personal accounts.
  • Do not use your work email to sign into non-work related stuff (Pinterest, Amazon, etc.). Using your work email for third party apps puts your account at risk to be compromised.
