Update your password and security question

Note:

The Password section of your profile is not shown if you use either an enterprise login or a social login.

Your profile includes a Password section, where you can update your password and security question, and enable multifactor authentication.

   Passwords must be at least eight characters and contain at least one letter and one number. Your password is case sensitive and spaces are not allowed.

Weak passwords won't be accepted. A password is considered weak if it is commonly used, such as password1 or includes repetitive or sequential characters, such as aaaabbbb or 1234abcd.

Change your security question

For security reasons, the answer to your security question is not displayed on your profile. You can change the answer to an existing security question or change both the security question and answer.

Enable multifactor authentication

Multifactor authentication provides an additional level of security by requiring a verification code, as well as your user name and password when you sign in. Multifactor authentication must be configured in your organization before it can be enabled for your account.

Complete the following steps to enable multifactor authentication for your account:

1. Click the Enable button next to Enable mulitfactor authentication.

4. Use the authentication app to scan the QR code that appears and click Next. If you have trouble scanning, click Can't scan the code?, type the 16-character code that appears, and click Next.
5. If you have trouble scanning, click Can't scan the code, type the 16-character code that appears, and click Next.
6. Enter the unique, time-sensitive six-digit verification code that the app provides, and click Finish.
