Password Reminder

One year ago the University implemented new password guidelines to enhance network security and protect personal and business data. For those of you new to the University this past year, here’s a reminder of our password policies:

• All passwords will expire every 90 days;
• All passwords must be a minimum of 8 characters in length (with the exception of voicemail passwords);
• All passwords must contain at least one numeric character; and,
• All passwords must contain at least one special character (a special character is any character that isn’t a letter or number).

Information on the various available methods of resetting your passwords, along with an example of how to apply these new requirements, is available on the Help Desk website at http://helpdesk.boisestate.edu/facstaff/passwords.shtml
