Your password is your account's first line of defense. As such, it's important that you select a strong combination of letters, numbers, and special characters to combat hackers.

When setting up your account, you're required to use the following:

• At least 8 characters
• At least one small letter
• At least one capital letter
• At least one number
• At least one special character !@#$%^&*

But you don't have to end there. There are other ways to fortify your password, such as using multiple numbers and special characters, mixing up upper and lower case letters throughout the password, and using more than 8 characters.
