A secure password is a password which is difficult to guess or to find with an automated program.
A password is secure if:
It contains at least 8 characters.
It contains at least 3 different characters.
It uses three of the following character types:
- Upper case (A, B, C).
- Lower case (a, b, c).
- Numbers (1, 2, 3).
- Symbols and punctuation marks (` ~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) _ + - = { } | [ ] \ : " ; ' < > ? , . /).
A secret answer is not secure if :
It's a common name or a variant thereof.
It's part of your name or nickname.
It consists of a date (date of birth, for example).
It is used on other games or forums (guild forums, for example).
It is known to and used by other people, even in confidence.
It has been recorded elsewhere (on a sheet of paper or a text file).
Remarks: passwords are case-sensitive (for example A does not correspond to a). If your password contains different cases, you should ensure you enter the correct case.
