This section walks through the steps needed to change your password. User password controls are available on the WebUI when your administrator delegates this capability to users in your organization. If you are having issues signing on to MOVEit Transfer you can also check the topic titled Sign-on and Account Access Tips

Important: The Change Your Password view will be available in your account settings if your MOVEit Transfer administrator allows users to change passwords after signing on. If you do not see it, you must request a password change from the administrator.

To change your password from account settings

  1. In the top banner, click MY ACCOUNT. Locate the Change Your Password... section.
  2. Enter your old (current) password.
  3. Select one of the following options:
    • Use Suggested Password.
    • Type Custom Password. Following the listed rules, type a new password and repeat to help verify it.
  4. Click Change Password.
Tip: Use a password of 12 or more characters and a blend of letters and numbers.

To reset your password (using security questions or email)

Password reset is available at sign-on if your MOVEit Transfer Administrator enabled it. You can verify it is configured by checking the sign-on page. When configured, the Forgot Password hyperlink displays.
