Reset a Password

Secure Password Requirements

When creating or resetting a password, you must meet the following secure password requirements:

• From 10 to 30 characters.
• Upper and lower case letters.
• At least one number and one special character.

Also note that your firm administrator may have enabled two-factor authentication. This will require verification either via SMS or Authenticator App when logging in.

If a user forgets their password when logging in:

1. At the bottom of the login page, click Forgot Password.
2. Enter the username.
   The system sends an email with a link to reset the password. 

Password Reset by User

If a user is logged into their account and wants to change their password:

1. In the upper right corner, click the gray Silhouette icon.
2. From the drop-down, click Change Password.
3. On the Change Password screen, enter the old password.
4. Enter the new password.

Reset Expired Password

If your firm administrator has enabled a password expiration policy, you will receive a warning when logging in 14, 7, and 3 days prior to expiration asking you to reset your password. 

You will have the option to skip until the day of expiration when you will be forced to reset. We recommend resetting your password as soon as possible.
