Your saved browser passwords are going away!
Well, not exactly—but close. Soon, Hospital browsers will no longer store usernames and passwords.
Why?
Passwords saved in browsers are easy to steal. To strengthen cybersecurity, this feature is being disabled.
What do I do?
- Back up your passwords. In Help Desk Self Service, search “export passwords” for step-by-step guides.
- Use Imprivata Single Sign-On (SSO). SSO will securely manage your corporate passwords, works on all standard devices, and keeps your access when computers are replaced.
When is this happening?
- Starting today, browsers will stop prompting to save new passwords.
- Removal of existing passwords will be set for October 6
- Imprivata SSO implementation will start October 6 through December, stay tuned for information from the Help Desk for your department dates and times.
Important
SSO does not auto-fill every site by default—it must be configured. Please tell the Help Desk which sites you need supported during your SSO implementation.
Please note: SSO applies only to corporate systems such as Smartsheet, Helpdesk Self-Service, Virtuo ESS, UKG, Outlook Web Mail, etc.
