Password Security

A password is stronger if it is a bit more complex. Remember you can use the entire keyboard to make up a really strong password and the more numbers, letters and symbols it has, the more secure your personal information will be. A password should be a minimum of 8 characters.

Password Tips

If you suspect that someone else knows your password, you should change it immediately.

Note: a password does not have to be really long to be secure.
