Creating a Strong Password
When setting a new password, consider these recommendations:
- Balance memorability with difficulty for others to guess
- Use a unique password—avoid reusing credentials from email, banking, or other accounts
- Longer passwords offer better security
- Never use personal identifiers like your email, phone number, or birthdate
- Avoid common terms such as "Password"
- Consider using a dedicated password manager application
- Never share passwords with anyone; change them immediately if compromised
If the system indicates insufficient password strength, try combining uppercase and lowercase letters or extending the length using a memorable phrase.
Additional Security
