Cyber Patrol from SurfControl, Inc. Cyber Patrol Help Navigation Bar

Advanced:Passwords

  • Set or modify the password used to access Headquarters.

  • Set or modify the Deputy password.


Headquarters password

Because Headquarters is used to administer Cyber Patrol, access to it is protected by a password. Only users who know the password can open Headquarters.

The initial Headquarters password, as shipped, is blank. During the first Cyber Patrol installation, you are prompted to set a password. After that, you can change the password at any time.

Note: Remember the Headquarters password! Without it, you will need to call Cyber Patrol Technical Support for help.


Deputy password

The Cyber Patrol Deputy can override Headquarters settings to temporarily block or allow Internet access. As with Headquarters, the Deputy is protected by a password.


Rules for passwords

  • Passwords can include any number of alphabetic and numeric characters.
  • Passwords are case-sensitive; that is, Cyber Patrol distinguishes between upper- and lower-case characters.
