CHANGING YOUR PASSWORD


  • To change your password you must be logged into the system.
  • From the Dashboard > My account > Change My Password.

Password change


  • Enter new password and confirm new password.

Password change requirements


  • Include at least one capital letter, one number and at least 12 characters long.
  • Create a Passphrase A passphrase is simply a phrase or sentence that you use instead of a word or set of characters. The key to creating a strong passphrase is to use something that's meaningful to you but that wouldn't be easily guessed. Avoid movie lines such as: "Hasta la vista baby" An example suitable for EMR-Bear would be: "The Horse jumped 1 fence", (not really because it's now a known phrase) Which contains at least one capital letter, one number and is at least 12 characters long. The phrase is easy to remember for a human, yet difficult to guess. Sometimes EMR-Bear rejects a password as being too guessable. We check passwords against a list of compromised passwords available on the web; these passwords are known to be used by hackers to gain access to internet resources. It is best to avoid their use.

    • NOTE: write down your password, as passwords are encrypted into the system and there is no way to retrieve it.
      • Should you need to reset your password, please ask the system administrator.
      • You may be prompted for a password change depending on your system settings.
