Do not give your password over the phone to anyone claiming to be from the HelpDesk or Tech Support!

No one from the HelpDesk or Technical Support will ever ask you for your password. If access to your account is needed for some reason, and we can't contact you in time, your password will be reset and you'll be notified by voicemail. Anyone calling and asking you for your password is most likely trying to gain unauthorized access to the network. If you ever receive such a call, notify your supervisor and the HelpDesk immediately.
