Passwords must be a minimum of 12 characters and contain at least:
- 1 number
- 1 special character (see list below)
- 1 upper case character
- 1 lower case character.
The best passwords are easy to remember and difficult to guess. We suggest using a simple phrase or life-long goal as the basis of your password. Remove or add spaces, randomly capitalize letters, and include one or more special characters.
Special characters:
^ $ * . [ ] { } ( ) ? ” ! @ # % & / \ , > < ‘ : ; | _ ~ ` = + –
