Be safe online with a strong password!

Passwords help protect your most important personal information and prevent others from accessing that information.

 

You need a strong password because someone could:

  • access personal accounts or your bank accounts
  • use your personal information
  • steal your identity and set up fake social media accounts in your name
  • spread internet malware from your account

 

How to make a strong password:

  • At least 12 characters long (longer password are better).
  • At least one uppercase character
  • At least one lowercase character
  • One or two special characters
  • At least two numbers
  • Don’t include personal information 

An example of a strong password could be:
