In Guru, the password system is very straightforward:

  1. Password are only applied to certain sensitive documents, such as exam papers, when you download documents from Guru
  2. The password that will be used is your ‘Master Password’.
  3. One password is used for all of your sensitive documents.
  4. If you change this password, the old password versions will be kept by default
  5. Your active password is always applied to all future documents
