Secure Password Requirements Guide
To ensure that you set Secure Passwords when recovering or changing your password, we have a few security requirements to assist you in avoiding weak passwords.
The password should either be:
- At least 12 characters long and contain upper and lower case letters (except languages that only have one case) plus numbers and symbols (special characters) like ! ” ? $ % ^ ).
- The password should not contain words related to you or your website.
Please note: That the system will not accept any passwords that do not meet the above requirements and will constantly prompt you to select a new password until requirements are met.
