Heartbleed: reset your 91³Ô¹Ï Password

Published: 15 May 2014

In April, we emailed you about the Heartbleed vulnerability and its potential impact on 91³Ô¹Ï. All of 91³Ô¹Ï's central IT systems have been evaluated, and updates were applied where needed. As a final precaution, we strongly encourage you to change your 91³Ô¹Ï Password without delay.Ìý

If you are a 91³Ô¹Ï staff member, you are required to change your password.

When changing your 91³Ô¹Ï Password, remember to make it complex (try adding symbols and numbers), and unique (don't use the same password for online banking, cloud storage, social media, etc.). If you currently use the same password for other non-91³Ô¹Ï accounts, you may wish to change those as well. That way, even if one online account is compromised in the future, all of your other accounts will be secure.

To reset your 91³Ô¹Ï Password:

  • Faculty, staff, & students: log into Minerva, and go to the Personal Menu > Password for 91³Ô¹Ï Username.Ìý
  • Affiliates: go to Reggie and click on Change Account Information, then select 91³Ô¹Ï Password.Ìý

Note: If you have more than one 91³Ô¹Ï Username that is used solely by you (for example, you have a student and a staff account), your new password will apply to both accounts.

Once you've followed the onscreen instructions to change your password, use the 91³Ô¹Ï Password Reset Checklist to help you identify various IT services where you might have saved your 91³Ô¹Ï Password.Ìý

While 91³Ô¹Ï will be sending faculty, staff, students, and resource account sponsors an email message with similar content to this announcement, please note that we will never send you a message to "click here to reset your password".
