Account Password Reset
The platform makes sure that account passwords are regularly updated through the automatic deprecation mechanism. By default, passwords expire after 180 days (with several heads-up notifications) and need to be renewed to restore access to the account.
If you still retain access to your account, follow the change password flow. If you’ve forgotten your current password or it has already expired, the platform provides a reliable and secure flow to reset your password.
Password Requirements
User accounts security is the top priority for the platform, so the following password requirements are enforced by default:
- the minimum length of 10 characters
- at least one symbol for each of the following categories: numbers, lowercase and uppercase letters, special characters
- must not repeat any of the previous passwords
Also, we recommend configuring Two-Factor Authentication for an additional layer of protection to drastically increase the account’s security.
