New Password Requirements for Blue Access for Employers

As of Sunday, July 14, all Blue Access for Employers users will be prompted to update passwords to meet the new password guidelines.

Password Guidelines:

  • Password is required to be between 8 and 20 alpha-numeric characters in length containing at least one letter, one number, and one special character.
  • The following are allowable special characters: ( ) ` ~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * - + = | \ { } [ ] : ; " ' < > , . ? / _

Below are tips for creating a secure complex password:

  • Your password should not contain personal information, such as your first or last name or date of birth.
  • Your password should not contain easily guessed words, such as days of the week, months of the year, or system codes like 'demo', 'system', or 'new'.
  • Your password should only repeat a character once consecutively. For example, 1122AA3 is appropriate, 11122AA is not.
  • Your password should be periodically updated and should not be the same or similar to your prior 6 passwords.
