Monday, February 3rd, 2014:The majority of applications and services across Tufts University have successfully adopted SSO (simplified sign-on). As SSO (Tufts Username / Tufts Password) is the preferred primary authentication method , it is time to phase at Tufts University, we are phasing out the visual reminder by no longer including the simplified sign-on logo on Tufts login pages. If you manage a page that uses the logo (and show the logo). |
The following text is posted here for archival purposes only.
simplified sign-on logo, please remove the logo from the page. |

We recommend using the input field labels "Tufts Username" and "Tufts Password" for all SSO-enabled services. In cases where we cannot change the input field labels, we place on the page the message; "Please use your Tufts Username and Tufts Password to log in". We are also standardizing the spelling of "Log In" and "Log Out" as 2 words when used as a verb such as on buttons, and "Login" and "Logout" when used as a noun. You can use the CSS code for the Log In button: Web Standards - Buttons Below is an example of a standardized, mobile friendly login page:

| Wiki Markup | Tufts Simplified Sign-on eliminates the need for what has been known as the “Trumpeter password,” the password that is used to access Trumpeter email, Tufts library services, Spark, Elists, TUSK and many other systems. Users will access all systems that now use the Trumpeter password with their Active Directory (AD) password, which is currently used for logging into MS Windows computers, Microsoft Exchange, Tufts VPN, and network storage (e.g. P:, Q:, and R: drives). Going forward, your AD password will be called your “Tufts Password” because it will cover so many systems. {indent}Click {newwindow:here|Tufts Tools} http://tuftstools.tufts.edu/index.html{newwindow} to change or recover your password.
