We have decided to tighten the use of passwords within SPG. To many people are using Monday, password, or simple names which can be guessed.

So when you are next prompted to change your password you must meet the follow set of criteria.

Be at least seven characters in length  Contain characters from three of the following four categories: English uppercase characters (A through Z) English lowercase characters (a through z) Base 10 digits (0 through 9) Non-alphabetic characters (for example, !, $, #, %)

Don't worry if you can't remember this, as there is a prompt box containing this information next time you update your password.

A great way to make a really strong password is to use the first initial of a sentence.

You could never guess "Mdagty70".

But it's just "My daisy's are growing this year" + the year I was born.
