Passwords - strong, medium or weak

Blogs > Gatton & External Students Blog

Are you still using the same password you received when you became a student of UQ? To protect yourself, you should change your password regularly. At least every six months or more often if you think your password has been compromised.

You can change your password online when you login to myUQ. Click on the Personalise tab and then select MyDetails. Click on the red arrow which says Change my password@UQConnect and it will take you to the page where you can change your password.

Read the guidelines for choosing your password before moving down the page to where you can enter your details to change the password. As you enter your new password you will be alerted as to the strength. Passwords should be medium or stronger to be acceptable.

Remember to never share your password with anyone. If you need help with changing your password, or if you have forgotten your password, you can contact Ask I.T.
