Check your log-in ATTEMPTS

You may have noticed many students are getting locked out of their accounts.  This is due to suspicious Out Of Country log-ins to their accounts.  Sometimes these are legit if a students goes on vaca.  If they are using a proxy on the phone or computer they may also get blocked.  This is a NEW security thing from IS and MS.  You may thing who would want to hack into MY account from oversees.  Because then the violator can send e-mails from YOU to the rest of us in GSD to purchase a baby grand piano!

Like it not your account has been attempted to be compromised.  I know you probably don't believe me so check!

1. Go to office.com and log in.
2. At the top right click your emojicon and select view account.
3. On the left click on "My Sign-Ins"
4. In the second column check the locations.  Keep scrolling keep scrolling....
   1. Me?  I have never been to "Greater London",  "Tamil Nadu India" or NYC.  Then why did my account have an unsuccessful login attempt?  Good Question right?
5. Pretty Crazy!  Please be sure you have a good password!
6. Click "Secure your account".  The theory is that from now on you will get a message if there is a sign in attempt from an unknown computer.  Although I am not sure if you're gonna want to know!  I am sure you can Un-Secure it later.

Has your account been pwned?

Find out.

1. Go to haveibeenpwned.com/ and type in your e-mail address. 
   This is a legit site - Even suggested by our own IS.
2. I have been pwned 22 times.  None my fault but sites we use have been hacked and our e-mails "stolen"

Take it another step.  At the top click on Passwords

1. type in your password.  I held my breath was told by our IS dept. it was okay...
2. I have "0" pwns on My pw!  Yeehaw!
3. My other pw has been pwned once.  I have been using that password for about 20 years!  Not a bad record but time to change it!  Problem is WHERE am I using it...

Don't care cuz it is just work?  Try your personal accounts!
