What is a secure password?

A password is secure only when you alone know it and it is hard for others to guess. Choose a password that you can easily remember but others can’t guess. Instead of a word that can be found in a dictionary, create a unique combination that only you would know.

Also, keep in mind the following:

• Your password must be between 4 and 14 characters long; the longer it is, the more secure it is.
• Try to use uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and numbers together.
• Your password must not be the same as your user code.

Examples of insecure passwords: sunflower, eCift2009, BlackMurat

Example of a secure password: Mmbd29N (explanation: “My mother’s birthday is November 29”)
