Choose a strong password

It is imperative to choose a password that cannot be easily guessed; this is why EPFL imposes the following rules : :

  • It must not contain your account name, nor parts of your full name that exceed two consecutive characters. 
  • It must contain at least 10 characters. 
  • It must contain characters from at least three of the following four categories  
    • Unaccented capital letters (A to Z) 
    • Lowercase letters without accents (a to z) 
    • Decimal numbers (0 to 9) 
    • Non-alphabetic characters (e.g., !, $, #, %)
