Access to computer systems must be password protected. Please read and understand the password recommendations below:
- Keep passwords secret; do not share them with others.
- Memorize passwords to avoid having to write them down.
- Create strong passwords which:
- Are at least 7 characters long.
- Are not dictionary words or easily recognizable proper nouns.
- Include upper and lower case letters, numbers, and special characters.
Change passwords regularly. Never select "remember my password" if prompted to do so.
You must follow your own facility's specific password policies and procedures.
