ITS-Passwords (Kerberos at U-M)
This service is used for authentication (to validate that you are who you say you are) when logging in to many services and systems at U-M. Kerberos will continue to be available, but we recommend the use of other authentication options, such as Shibboleth, whenever possible going forward, rather than using Kerberos directly.
