Dashlane at Penn

The University has partnered with Dashlane to supply password management accounts to members of the Penn community.  Dashlane offers a secure vault for storing your passwords and other secure information. It allows users to create stronger, more varied passwords for their accounts, ultimately leading to a more secure environment.  Along with this vault comes a series of tools,  including a random password generator, password auditing tools, and a password auto-change tool.
