1. What is the advanced password policy?
Our advanced password policy helps you create strong, hard-to-guess passwords. As you type, it checks your password against several rules and shows whether it passes or fails.
2. What are the requirements for my password?
Your password should:
Include 10+ characters with both uppercase and lowercase letters.
Include at least one digit (0–9) and one special character (for example: ! @ # $ % & * ?).
Avoid sequences and repeated characters (like "12345", "abcdef", "aaaa", "1111").
Not include personal information, such as your name, username, email, phone number, or date of birth.
All four conditions must be met for the password to be accepted.
3. How do I know if my password meets all the criteria?
If it does meet all the criteria:
The password field will show a green border.
Each rule will have a green check mark beside it.
If the rule is maintained, the green check mark will be visible beside it.
You can safely proceed to save your new password.
This means your password is considered strong and compliant with our policy.
4. What happens if my password does not meet certain criteria?
If it does not meet certain criteria:
The password field will show a red border.
Any rule that isn’t satisfied will show a red cross mark.
You’ll need to update your password until all rules turn into green checkmarks.
Until then, the form may prevent you from continuing.
5. What does “Include 10+ chars with upper & lowercase letters” mean?
Your password must:
Be at least 10 characters long, and
Contain at least one uppercase letter (A–Z) and one lowercase letter (a–z).
Example of a valid start: "Str0ngpass!"
Here, “S” is uppercase, “trongpass” is lowercase, and the total length is 10+ characters.
6. What does “Include a digit and a special character” mean?
Your password must include:
At least one number: 0–9
At least one special character, such as: ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) - _ + = ?
Example: "SecurePass1!" (contains the digit 1 and the special character !).
7. What are “sequences and repeated characters,” and why should I avoid them?
Sequences are patterns like "123456", "abcdef", or keyboard patterns like "qwerty".
Repeated characters are the same character repeated many times, like "aaaaaa" or "111111".
These patterns are easier for attackers to guess, so passwords using them may be rejected or flagged as weak.
Instead of "Password123!", try something less predictable, like "PineC0ne!47".
8. What counts as personal information in my password?
You should not include:
Your name or nickname
Your username or email
Your phone number
Your date of birth or other easily known details
For example, "Alex@1994!" is weak if your name is Alex and 1994 is your birth year.
9. Tips for creating a strong, memorable password
Use a phrase that only you would remember, then modify it.
Example phrase: “My first dog was Rocky in 2014!”
Password: "M1stD0gWasR0cky!14"
Mix in uppercase/lowercase, numbers, and special characters.
Avoid anything that someone could guess from your social media or public info.
