Passphrase Verification Page: This page may be used to verify that your passphrase is correct for your Case Network ID.

Enter your CWRU Network ID (eg: abc123) and its associated passphrase in the fields below, then click the "Verify passphrase" button. Your CWRU network ID and passphrase will be checked to verify that your passphrase is correct for that ID. Other useful information about your passphrase and network account also will be displayed on your screen, including:

Passphrase Verification Check
This check will verify that your passphrase is correct and if your CWRU Network ID is active. If this check fails, you will be notified exactly why it failed (for example, if the passphrase was not correct or the account has not been activated).
Passphrase "Goodness" Check
This check will assess the strength of your passphrase. If the passphrase is considered weak (easily "guessed" or decoded by passphrase cracking software) you will be notified exactly why it is considered weak (for example, if your passphrase is too short, or uses a word found in the dictionary).
Date and Time of Last Passphrase Change
This feature will allow you to view the date and time of your last passphrase change, along with the number of days elapsed since that date. We recommend that users change their passphrases at least every 180 days.
Security Question and Answer
This feature will allow you to see if you have entered a security question and answer yet. Your security question and answer replace the use of your SSN and birth date as an alternate method of verifying your identity when you "log in" to the passphrase reset page. The passphrase reset page is for use in changing your passphrase if you have forgotten your old passphrase.
