New Password Policy Effective Beginning January 2008

Under the new policy, your ULink password must have a minimum length of eight (8) characters including at least one numeric character and at least one special character (e.g. &, *, $, etc).

On January 18, 2008, Information Technology will implement a new password format to comply with the Information Security Office (ISO) policy for minimum standards for creation of strong passwords.  Under the new policy, your ULink password must have a minimum length of eight (8) characters including at least one numeric character and at least one special character (e.g. &, *, $, etc). With the strengthening of the password format, passwords will expire in 180 days rather than the current 90 day period. When prompted to change your password after January 18, you will be required to use the new password format.
