Security Notification for Evernote Users

3/5/2013 – A recent security incident at Evernote allowed attackers to gain access to Evernote user names, email addresses and password hashes.  Evernote has notified all users to reset passwords.  If you use Evernote and have not reset those credentials, please do so at once.  If you have used the same password on any other services, especially University resources, change those passwords at once.  Be sure to avoid passwords that you have used before and do not use your University passwords on third-party services.

Please keep in mind that Evernote is not an appropriate resource for University business.  The service is not compliant with federal regulations governing student data, and the University cannot audit or confirm security of content on the service.  If you do have University data in Evernote, please remove it at once.
