How to select a password

• Your password must be at least 7 characters long
• It must contain characters from three of the following four categories:
  • English upper case characters (A..Z)
  • English lower case characters (a..z)
  • Base 10 digits (0..9)
  • Non-alphanumeric (For example, !,$#,%)
• Your password cannot include all or part of your username.
• It should not be a simple word found in the dictionary.
• Your password cannot be the same as any of the last three passwords you have used.
• You cannot change your password more than once in any 24 hour period.

You can be as creative as you wish with your password. You should NOT simply pick a word, capitalize the first letter and tack a number on the end (ex: Sesame1 is a poor password). You should instead think of a phrase that you can change significantly. The more unique and personal the meaning of the phrase is to you, the better.

Here are some sample "pass phrases."
