How to change your password?
You can change your password through the by logging in with your university’s credentials or with your online banking credentials.
The change occurs immediately and affects all the Ä¢¹½Ö±²¥â€™s systems.
What is a good password?
- Don’t use your university’s username or password anywhere else
- Pick a password that is hard to guess, but can be memorized without the need to write it down
- Contains at least 14 characters
- Password can also be a phrase containing multiple words, preferably separated with a space
- You can use special characters, small and big letters, numbers and Nordic alphabets
- Do not use any dictionary word (either forwards or backwards)
Changing the password and using it
- It is recommended to change the password a couple of times a year (university’s systems do not force a change)
- Don’t use the same password anywhere else. If you suspect that your account has been compromised, change it as soon as possible
- Don’t give your credentials to anyone else, not even the system administrators. Administrators never ask for your password.
