New Password Requirements
An update on passwords; if you do NOT change your password, the new rules won't apply UNTIL you do; so, for example, if you try to change your password from "Charlie1" to Charlie2", the new rules will cause an error message; "Charlie123" (as an example but please don't use it) would meet the new requirements
New Minimum Password Requirements
4 October, 2017 by Stewart
As part of our continuing commitment to improving security, as of today, we have updated our minimum password requirements.
The new minimum password requirements are as follows:
- Must be at least 10 characters in length
- Must contain at least 1 digit (0-9)
- Must contain one upper case character (A-Z)
- Must contain one lower case character (a-z)
- Must not contain a character repeated more than twice (aa in your password is fine, aaa is not)
