Setting up Your Security Question

When you access WFDSS for the first time, you will be asked to select a security question and answer. Your security question helps to validate your identity in case you need the system or Help Desk to reset your password. This question should be something that only you know the answer to, but can easily remember.

Note: The security question answer is case insensitive.When you incorrectly answer your Security Answer five times, you must wait 30 minutes before requesting a new password reset.

To set up your security question:

1. Login to WFDSS for the first time. The Change Password page opens.
2. Change your password from the system-generated password. Once you click, Change Password, the Create a Security Question page appears.
3. Select a security question from the drop-down list.
4. Enter the response to the question.
5. Re-enter your response.
6. Click Save. A message appears confirming that your security question/answer has been changed.
