Change Your Password
Note: You will need to have already set and verified an email for your Cyfrin profile to be able to change your password.
To change your Cyfrin Profile password, if you're already logged in:
Navigate to the drop-down menu in the top right of the navigation bar
Select Settings
Click Security on the left navigation bar
Enter the email address associated with your account in the space provided
Click Change
You'll receive an email with a link to navigate to the Change Password Page.
Follow the instructions on the screen to update your password.
If you aren't logged in, click Forgot Password? on the login page and follow the instructions provided.
Remember that you'll need access to the email associated with your account.
Set a strong Cyfrin password
When you create a new password, remember:
Your password should be easy to remember but difficult for others to guess.
Your Cyfrin password should differ from those you use to log into other accounts, like your email or bank account.
Longer passwords are usually more secure.
Your password should not be your email, phone number, or birthday.
Avoid using common words, like “Password”.
Use a password manager. Many different applications can store your passwords securely.
Don't share your passwords with anyone, online or in person. If you do, change them as soon as possible.
If you see a message letting you know the password you entered isn't strong enough, try mixing uppercase and lowercase letters together. You can also make the password more complex by making it longer with a phrase or series of words you can easily remember but no one else knows.
