Strong Passwords

A strong password consists of at least eight characters.  The more characters, the stronger the password is.

Here's a guide to creating a strong password.

  • Minimum of eight characters -  A longer password of 12 plus characters would be even stronger.
  • Includes Numbers, Symbols, Capital Letters, and Lower-Case Letters: Use a mix of different types of characters to make the password harder to crack.
  • Stay away from dictionary words: This makes guessing a password easier.
  • Don't rely on obvious substitutions:  “Busin3ss” isn't strong because you've replaced an 'e' with a '3'.
  • Consider using a password generator:  https://passwordsgenerator.net/ 
  • Check your passwords to see how secure they are:
