# Profile & Security

Your Profile & Security area is designed to keep your account information accurate and your credentials protected. This section is divided into two key areas: Profile Information and Security.

**Understanding Your Profile Data**

Your profile contains essential information that WalnutAI uses to identify you and communicate with your team. Here's what each field represents:

* **Name & Email:** Your primary contact details used for system notifications, team collaboration, and login verification.
* **Account Status**: Shows whether your account is Active (currently in use) or Inactive (not accessed for an extended period).
* **Role:** Your assigned privilege level that determines what you can view and modify in WalnutAI (e.g., Admin, Editor, Viewer).

**Managing Your Password**

To update your password and maintain account security:

* Navigate to the Security tab within My Profile.
* Follow the prompts to create a new password.
* Confirm the change and log in with your updated credentials.

{% hint style="warning" %}
We recommend changing your password every 90 days to maintain optimal security. If you suspect any unauthorized access to your account, reset your password immediately and contact your Admin for assistance.
