# Guidelines for creating a strong password

### Guidelines for creating a strong password

To ensure the security of your account, follow these best practices when creating a password:

#### 1. Length

- Your password must be at least 8 characters long.
- Longer passwords (12+ characters) are even more secure.

#### 2. Complexity

A strong password should include a mix of the following:

- Uppercase letters (A-Z)
- Lowercase letters (a-z)
- Numbers (0-9)
- Special characters (e.g., !, @, #, $, %, ^, &amp;, \*)

#### 3. Uncompromised Password

- Avoid using passwords that have been previously exposed in data breaches.
- Use a unique password for each account to prevent security risks.
- You can check if a password has been compromised using publicly available services.
