Gain Access to Important Services
To access many electronic services at SUNY Plattsburgh, you need an account. An account is a means by which computer systems identify users and provide appropriate access.
To be able to identify individual users, each user is assigned a unique NetID. To ensure that a user's information is confidential or that only authorized users have access to such services, each NetID is in turn assigned a password. This password will initially be assigned a default value, but each user is encouraged to change it at a later time. In fact, changing one's passwords frequently is a good way to keep ones account and information secure.
