  Important guidelines for choosing a secure password   

Please read these prior to changing your password. For your convenience, our password changing utility will check your password for common dictionary words and the recommended length and character guidelines.
  • Your password must be at least 6 characters long and no longer than 14.
  • Password must contain characters from three of the following categories:
        English uppercase characters (A through Z)
        English lowercase characters (a through z)
        Base 10 digits (0 through 9)
        Nonalphanumeric characters (e.g., !, $, #, %)
  • Passwords should not contain portions of your name.
  • Words found in common dictionaries should not be used unless the spelling is altered or the words are 3 characters or shorter.
  • Passwords should be changed often!
    All passwords should be treated as CASE SENSITIVE although not all systems require this.
