Techy Tips

🌍🔒 World Password Day - Check Your Passwords!

This World Password Day, use the builtin chrome Security Checkup to identify weak links and the Notes feature to store information for educational platforms.

Step-by-Step Instructions:

  • In Chrome, click the three dots (⋮) in the top right → Passwords and Autofill → Google Password Manager. (Or just type chrome://password-manager in your search bar).  

  • Run a Checkup: Click on Checkup in the left-hand menu.

  • Google will scan your saved credentials and tell you if any are:

    • Compromised (part of a known data breach).

    • Reused (the #1 security risk for teachers).  

    • Weak (easy to guess).

Shared Passwords

 Many teachers have a few accounts for tools like Wordwall or Twinkl that might be shared with a co-teacher. Use the Notes field in the Password Manager to keep track of who has access.

To Add "Context Notes", click on any saved password and select Edit. Look for the "Note" field.
