Password Requirements

Due to the often sensitive nature of the information contributed during your use of SilverCloud, it is necessary that we take steps to ensure the security of your data. Therefore, we ask you to come up with a password that has a minimum of requirements.

Avoid using:

• individual dictionary words
• common passwords
• easy to type sequences
• examples of bad passwords include: ‘1234’, ‘abc’, ’password’, ‘password123’, ‘p4ssw0rd’

The password must contain:

• at least 8 characters
• at least one number
• at least one uppercase letter
• at least one lowercase letter

A good rule is to think of a phrase that combines words and numbers. Phrases are easier for you to remember and difficult for someone else to guess.
