While it is tempting to keep a familiar, easy-to-remember password, it is safer to change your password on a regular basis.
Guidelines for Creating a Strong Password
A strong password is harder for others to figure out, which means it is harder for others to gain access to your data. So instead of using the name of your favorite sports team or your pet’s name, consider these strategies for making a strong password… A password that you will remember, but others would not be likely to guess.
- The required password length is ten characters. However, the longer you make your password, the stronger it will be.
- Your password needs to contain at least one lower case letter, one upper case letter, one number, and one special character.
- Get creative! Combine letters with special characters and numbers.
- Do not go with the obvious choices.
- Use a familiar saying or quote for a longer password. Better yet, make a nonsensical word using the initial letter in each word of the sentence or phrase. (Sample: “Oh say can you see, by the dawn’s early light” could turn into: “Oscys*btdeL?”)
