Creating a strong password

Creating a strong password is important to ensure that your account is well-protected. Each account password must follow these requirements:

1. Meet a requirement of 3 or better on our password strength bar.
2. Not have been involved in a breach on another website.

To further protect your account, we recommend that you avoid using the same password for multiple sites.

And don't forget: your password is case sensitive!

If you need to reset your password, but can't remember your old one, please follow these simple steps to reset it.

Having trouble thinking of a secure password? This comic from xkcd might help:

Using a short, multi-word phrase is a good way to both remember your password, and keep it safe!

For the highest security of passwords you use on any site, we recommend using a secure password tool such as 1Password or LastPass. These tools can create strong passwords for you and store them so you don't need to remember anything but your master password.
