After you register, if you ever forget your password, you can reset your password.

If, at any time, you wish to simply change your password to something else, then you can do so.

Requirements for your password are as follows:

  • Minimum length of 10 characters (12 characters recommended)
  • Must not include your username or parts of your full name
  • Must contain characters from three of the following four categories
    • Uppercase characters (A through Z)
    • Lowercase characters (a through z)
    • Base 10 digits (0 through 9)
    • Non-alphanumeric (for example !, $, #, %)

Any new password must differ from the previous five passwords.

Please create a strong password. Guidance on how to create a strong password.
