Why Am I Being Asked to Reset My Password?

If you're seeing a message that your password needs to be reset when trying to log in to Edlio, it's because our system has detected that your current password may not be strong enough to protect your account and your school's website.

Don't worry—this is a quick security update that helps keep your site safe!

What You Need to Do

Simply follow the "I don't remember my password" instructions to create a new, stronger password. This will get you back into your account right away.

Why Does Edlio Require Strong Passwords?

Strong passwords are your first line of defense against unauthorized access. They help protect:

  • Your personal account

  • Your school's website content

  • Student and staff information

  • Your school's online presence

What Makes a Password Weak?

A password might be flagged as weak if it:

  • Is easy to guess – like "password123" or your school name

  • Is very common – used by many people across the internet

  • Is a dictionary word – single words that can be easily cracked

  • Doesn't meet our complexity requirements – see our password requirements for specific guidelines

After You Reset Your Password

Once you've created your new strong password, you'll be able to log in normally. Make sure to store your new password somewhere safe so you can access it when needed.
