Why Use a Password Manager? 

Password managers like 1Password help you keep your online accounts secure by generating and storing complex, unique passwords for each of your accounts. With a single login, you can safely manage your login credentials, personal information, and other sensitive data across all your devices. 

Account Options 

You can choose from two account types based on your needs: 

  • Designed for university related accounts and credentials. 

  • Includes features for securely sharing credentials and other information with coworkers or classmates. 

  • Provides centralized security oversight to keep university data secure. 

  • Ideal for managing both personal and family passwords.
