Bocconi personal credentials
All students are equipped with credentials allowing them to access the network and the University IT services.
Using the credentials allows access to all services, including:
Changing the passphrase The passphrase can be changed through:
Students are encouraged to enter their alternate contact information (phone number, personal email address) in SSPR, which can subsequently be used to activate the recovery procedure in case of a forgotten passphrase. Passphrase recovery Compromised access credentials and two-factor authentication Compromise of login credentials is the most common vector for cybersecurity attacks. This intrusion occurs mostly through techniques called phishing which consist in sending the user messages that seem to be authentic mails from an institutional site or from an acquaintance. Instead, they induce the user to click on links that lead to sites purpose-built for stealing passwords. Once the credentials have been stolen, the student's email address and identity could be used to conduct illegal activities that could cause damage to the University or to third parties. Students must be aware of these risks and other social engineering techniques aimed at identity theft and, in case of suspicion, they should contact the Bocconi Security Operation Center without delay at soc@unibocconi.it for verification. of the incident. To reduce the risk of login credential theft, students are encouraged to use two-factor authentication, an innovative and secure technology that guarantees the utmost protection and confidentiality. This digital identity verification method adds a second layer of security to the student’s Bocconi account. After an initial setup using a QR code, which only needs to be scanned the first time, students will need to enter a numerical code confirming their identity each time they access Bocconi applications. To retrieve this code, students need to open the app installed on their smartphones. The second factor will not be required when the student is connected to the campus Wi-Fi network: bocconi-students. In case an outsider manages to steal a user’s password, identity verification using a second factor would still prevent access. The above procedure is not mandatory for access to systems at present. The adoption of the second authentication factor will gradually become a prerequisite for access to the University's educational resources. Last change 04/07/2024 15:21 |
