The iscte account password must comply with the following requirements:

• Must be at least 10 characters long.
• You should not reuse an old password.
• It must not contain your username (excluding the @iscte-iul.pt suffix) or any of its used names, excluding particles that are less than three characters long.
• It should not contain characters considered illegal (;, , , ‘, ‘, %, *, blank).
• It must contain characters from at least three of the following categories:
  • Capitals not accented (‘A’ to ‘Z’).
  • Lowercase not accented (‘a’ to ‘z’).
  • Decimal digits (‘0’ to ‘9’).
  • Non-alphanumeric characters (!, #, &, etc.).

• Passwords must be confidential.
• Do not store passwords on visible papers or locations.
• Regularly change your password even on systems that don’t require you to do so.
• Do not automatically record on systems (e.g. browsers).
• Do not use the same passwords in an academic context and in a personal context.
• To create a secure password think of an easy-to-remember phrase and then define a method to turn that phrase into a password.

For instance:

Phrase: how to set a secure password in 2020!

Method: first letter of each word, third word in letters, use only the last two digits of numbers and keep special characters.

Password: htSETaspi20! (Do not use this example).
