MUnet Password / Set up password recovery options

Objective

• To provide instructions on setting up MUnet password recovery options

Environment

• 10296: MUnet Password Utilities (WAS)

Rationale

• Resetting a forgotten password is simple, when you choose from the three recovery options we provide on our MUnet Password Utilities page:
  • Set a non-Miami email account to receive reset messages
  • Set an SMS-capable phone number to receive reset texts
  • Set a Secret Question and Answer
    • This is the least secure option. If you choose a text or email recovery option, delete your secret Q&A

Resolution

1. Go to our MUnet Password Utilities page
2. Click on I would like to update my recovery options
3. Enter your UniqueID and password
4. Follow the prompts to set up your recovery options
   • You may choose one or more options 
5. Follow the instructions to verify your selected recovery options

Note

• You must know your password to set your recovery options. If you have forgotten your password and have no recovery options, learn your options for resetting a forgotten password
