To keep your site secure, it is highly recommended that you have a secure password to keep hackers out. Passwords such as 'password' and '1234' are more common than one may believe, and are the equivalent of leaving your site open to anyone.
We recommend that your passwords must be at least:
- 8 to 10 Characters in length
- contain at least one UPPER CASE letter
- contain at least one number (0-9)
For password recommendations, we recommend using a password generator, such as any of the following:
