Password Tips and Safety

By on Aug 12, 2014 | 0 comments

Password-Must-Contain The Docs recommend just four simple guidelines: 1. Should contain at least one special character such as @#$& 2. Be at least 8 characters long 3. Not have any common words/numbers, such as 123, password, birthdate, your name 4. Contain a variation of capitals and small letters.

Using these simple guidelines may help prevent hackers and nefarious criminals from getting to where you don’t want them. And, BTW: DON’T USE THE SAME PASSWORD FOR EVERYTHING!
