Passwords
- To
protect UTSA’s technology resources and the work of its faculty,
students and staff from unauthorized access, individual login
identification user IDs and passwords are assigned. All users are
required to use only their own personal ID and password and may not use
group ID and password combinations or any other person’s ID and
password. UTSA maintains records of system use based on login IDs and
passwords, as required by Texas law and in accordance with industry best
practices.
- Individual users must reduce their risk and liability and not share with
anyone (including family members) their UTSA account(s), passwords,
Personal Identification Numbers (PINs), Security Tokens (i.e.
Smartcard), or similar information or devices used for identification
and authorization purposes.
- To
maintain the integrity of UTSA systems, users must not circumvent
password entry through use of auto logon, application "remember
password" features, embedded scripts or hard-coded passwords in client
software. Exceptions may be made for specific applications (like
automated backup) with the approval of the UTSA Information Security
Officer.
