New from IT: Breached password notification process

YKHC is implementing a breached password notification process. You will be notified by email when your YKHC computer login password has been discovered on the internet or poses a security risk. The text of the notification will be similar to this:

Choose a new password that meets these requirements:

  1. Must contain at least 8 characters
  2. Must meet at least 3 of the following:
    1. Must contain at least 1 uppercase letter
    2. Must contain at least 1 lowercase letter
    3. Must contain at least 1 digit
    4. Must contain at least 1 special character, like !@#$%^&*
  3. Must not contain your username
  4. Must not repeat any of your previous 2 passwords

The longer your password is in length, the longer you have until it needs to be changed:

Passwords are weak and vulnerable, so do not reuse passwords that protect your work, health, or financial information.
