Workspace Password Checks
Updated:
Blue Jacket runs risk assessments on users regularly. These assessments search your work accounts, emails, drives, and shared drives for:
- Compromised Passwords
- Credentials Stored In Email
- Credentials Stored In Drive
If you are detected to be at risk, an IT ticket will be opened, and you will be required to resolve the issue and/or take additional security training.
Here is what you can do to get ahead of the curve:
- Update passwords that were provided to you via email.
- Whenever possible, use Google to log in when registering for new accounts.
- Move any passwords stored in a document or email to Google Passwords.
- Visit the "Checkup" tab of Google Passwords and update any passwords that appear as compromised.
- Install Google Passwords as an app on your device to save time and provide easy access: Learn How
Please note a few important details:
- The scans will search the web for leaked and compromised passwords. Do not move a document or email with stored passwords to a personal phone or account; doing so may compromise all of your passwords.
- The scans will use AI to detect all documents used to un-securely store passwords. This means moving a document from a shared drive to a personal drive, or changing the name of the document to something unrelated, will not keep it from being detected by the risk scans.
