What is meant by password strength?
Password strength is a measure of the effectiveness of a password in resisting fraudulent login attempts. The strength of a password is a function of length, complexity, and randomness; a password that includes each of these elements will be more effective in preventing guessing or “brute-force” attacks on your account. Back to Top What will happen if I don’t change my password before it expires? Students, faculty, and staff members who fail to change their passwords before expiration will be required to present their IDs at the Customer Service Center (Gyte 133) to have their passwords reset. After the initial reset, faculty and staff will need to continually update their passwords every 30 days, and students will be required to update theirs every 120 days.
