Password Complexity Guidlines

Body

Policy

It is University policy that passwords must follow the following guidelines:

Passwords must be at least ten characters and should include the following:

  • Uppercase letters
  • Lowercase letters
  • Number
  • Special Character
  • Use a password or passphrase that has a unique meaning to only you, but does not have a natural flow: – H!Mnpintd2r! Hey! My new password is not that difficult to remember!
  • Do not reuse your new University of Lynchburg password with other accounts or websites
  • The same strong password used on another account that suffers a breach would place all of your other accounts using that same password in jeopardy
  • Never share your password with anyone
