Update your information.

Keep MyBlink private.
Keep your MyBlink settings secure with an access code.
  • This optional feature prevents others from seeing or modifying your MyBlink preferences.
  • Note: Please do not use any of your passwords for high-security services (such as campus e-mail, mainframe access, Darwin, etc.) since this access code is not encrypted and protects only your MyBlink preferences.
