What is the password policy?

Requirements for passwords:

• Minimum seven characters in length.
• Maximum 14 characters in length.
• Must contain English uppercase and lowercase letters.
• Can not contain all or part of the user’s user name.
• Can not contain any part of the user’s full name.
• Can not reuse previous three passwords.

Users wanting to strengthen their passwords further can follow these suggestions:

• Do not use words found in the dictionary.
• Do not use proper names.
• Use one or more numbers in the password.
• Use one or more nonalphanumeric characters in their password.
• It is strongly recommended that users with access to confidential and/or sensitive data utilize one or more of the suggestions to harden their password beyond the minimum requirements.
