Per, BPPM 87.05, it is the responsibility of each account holder to keep their authentication credentials secret. Account holders must not share or transfer their authentication credentials to others. Remembering unique passwords for every single work and personal account can be a daunting task. Instead of resorting to using the same password or passphrase for all accounts, consider using a password manager.
Password managers that securely store your passwords can help track all your accounts in one place and you only need to remember one secure password. Contact your area technology officer for more information.
Public computers such as those in a hotel business center or public library are susceptible to becoming infected with malware that can capture your activity including your logins and passwords. Avoid logging into any account when using a public computer.
When setting up security questions, do not use information that is publicly available to others.
If you think your password has been compromised or stolen for any university application, change it immediately and contact abuse@wsu.edu.
