Target Audience: Everyone at the University
The average person has more than 100 online accounts and that number is expected to double, at least, in the next few years.
Using secure and unique passwords for all your online accounts is an essential part of keeping yourself safe online, but remembering a large number of complicated passwords is a challenge for many people. This is where password managers come in.
The University is recommending LastPass, a world-class password manager. This webinar introduces LastPass and will cover the following topics:
- Why you need a password manager
- Getting up and running with LastPass
- The Vault – managing your passwords in LastPass
- Passwords for new online accounts
- Updating passwords for your existing online accounts
- Using LastPass with accounts that require your DS username
- Protecting your LastPass passwords with Multifactor Authentication
- Learning to trust a password manager
- Tips on using LastPass
