On 11th of July 2025, participants of the Children's university (H\u00e1sk\u00f3li unga f\u00f3lksins)<\/a> visited the Computer Science department. We did there a mini tabletop exercise on critical infrastructure in Iceland and after that authentication was discussed, e.g.: <\/p>\n

use different passwords for different services -- do not use the same password everywhere (if your password got stolen, it will by tried at all kinds of other web pages, so if you use the same password everywhere, all other services can be accessed using your identity,<\/li>\n
