Password

You’ll create your own password as part of the activation process. Together with your GTIIT account or your Technion account, your password lets you log in to many authentication-protected online services.

Armed with your passwords, criminals can get into your online accounts or profiles and steal your money, identity, academic paper, research outputs, and more besides. That’s why you should NEVER reveal your password to anyone, no matter how much you trust them! Make sure you use a strong, but memorable, passphrase.

• Never give your passwords to anyone.
• Create a different password for every account.
• If you’ve had your password stolen, change it and report it immediately.

When you change your password for one service, your password will automatically change for other services too.
