Password Management Tool
The Adelphi Password Management Tool (PMT) is used to change or reset your password.
How to Enroll
To get started, sign in using your eCampus email and password, then register your phone number (cell recommended) and an alternative (non-Adelphi) email address.
Once you register your phone and email you’ll be able to get Microsoft Office for free. You must currently be a matriculated undergraduate or graduate student, staff or faculty member to be eligible for the download.
If You Know Your Current Password
If you wish to unlock or change your password, you will need to sign in with your email and current password.
Don’t Remember Your Password?
If you don’t know your current password, you will need to use your phone or alternate email to reset your password.
Enhanced Password Protection
Enhanced Password Protection significantly enhances the security of your Adelphi accounts by implementing measures that actively block commonly used passwords as well as those associated with University branding, locations, and higher education terminology. This feature operates through the utilization of two distinct banned password lists:
- Global Banned Password List: Our Identity Provider, Microsoft, continually gathers data from breaches and other relevant sources to compile a comprehensive catalog of passwords commonly exploited by malicious actors. These passwords are then added to our global block list, ensuring that users cannot employ them for account access.
- Custom Banned Password List: In addition to the global list, we have developed our own custom-banned password list tailored specifically to Adelphi University’s security requirements. This list is designed to enforce specific security protocols aligned with our institutional standards. Whenever users attempt to change or reset their passwords, this custom list ensures compliance with our stringent security measures.
It’s important to note that while Enhanced Password Protection fortifies the security of your accounts, it represents just one aspect of our multifaceted approach to safeguarding our systems. Strong passwords serve as an initial layer of defense, but our collective efforts are essential in maintaining the integrity and resilience of our digital infrastructure.
