  4. In the Password & Security section, enter your current password in the Old Password field.

Choose a hard-to-guess password

    The system attempts to prevent particularly insecure passwords, but it is not foolproof.

    Do not use words that are in a dictionary, names, or any personal information (for example, your birthday or phone number).

    Avoid simple patterns. Instead, use UPPER and lower case letters, numbers, and symbols. Make certain that your password is at least eight characters long.

    When you choose a new password, make certain that it is not related to your previous passwords.
