Change password in PRISMA

Notes on secure access data

The combination of login name/UniID and password allows approval of personal data and resources. For this reason, these login data should be kept secret at all costs! Another security measure is the regular change of the password.

The password must be complex enough so that it cannot be easily guessed. However, the password must not be too complex so that you are able to use it regularly with reasonable effort.

You will achieve a suitable level of protection if you use a single password for each IT system.

For additional password security measures, see the Basic Information Security Regulations (BRI) for Employees.
