Frequently Asked Questions

How can I keep my password safe?

Don’t keep passwords in easy-to-find locations because if they are simple for you to access, they are also easy for others to find and steal.

• Don’t keep passwords for mobile devices with or near the devices.
• Don’t tape the password on the back of laptops or under keyboards.
• Don’t post passwords on sticky notes on your monitor.
• Don’t file passwords in your Rolodex or in your desk drawers.
• Don’t keep your passwords in a file named Passwords.

If you must write your password down, it is recommended that you store them in a secure location such as a locked drawer or cabinet.
