Personal Info

These options apply to all Workspaces to which you belong.  After configuring options, scroll to the bottom of the page, enter your password, and click SAVE.

Minimum length: 8

Maximum length: 14

Alphabetic characters required: Yes

Mixed case characters required: Yes

Numeric digits required: Yes

Punctuation characters required: Yes

Then a password such as:

pencilc0se

is unacceptable because it does not contain a mix of upper and lower case characters and it also does not contain any punctuation characters, such as the @ symbol. However, the following password would be acceptable:

pencilC@se1

The password pencilC@se1 contains between 8 and 14 characters, alphabetic characters, both an upper and numerous lower case characters, a number, and a punctuation character. Although the password complexity rules say "characters" and "numbers", only one character or number for each rule is required for compliance. If your password does not comply with the password complexity rules, you will be prompted to change your password upon login and will be unable to log in until your password complies with the rules.

Note

If you just changed your password, your old password is still active until after you apply the changes.  Consequently, even though you changed your password on the Preferences page, you must enter the old password to apply the changes.  After successfully changing your preferences, your new password becomes active.
