  5. Select the Time zone field to adjust the time zone.

    By default, the time zone is set to the user’s local time zone. If a time zone has not been selected, NetQ defaults to the current local time zone where NetQ is installed. All time values are based on this setting. If your deployment is not local to you (for example, you want to view the data from the perspective of a data center in another time zone) you can change the display to a different time zone.

  6. In the Date format field, select the date and time format you want displayed on the cards.

  3. In the Basic Account Info card, select Change password.

  4. Enter your current password, followed by your new password. Then select Save.
