| + | ==== Authentication Requirements ==== | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Passwords === | ||
| + | |||
| + | == Length == | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Passwords must be a minimum of 20 characters. | ||
| + | * This is to accommodate the length of passwords auto-generated by Apple' | ||
| + | * If you are not using Apple' | ||
| + | |||
| + | == Complexity == | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Use a password manager! | ||
| + | * Use a combination of different kinds of characters. | ||
| + | * Mix upper and lower case, numbers, and special characters for higher entropy passwords. | ||
| + | * Do not write your password on paper or share it with others. | ||
| + | |||
| + | === Second Factor Authentication === | ||
| + | |||
| + | 2FA is required to create an account. | ||
| + | |||
| + | == Authenticator App == | ||
| + | |||
| + | * A 2FA authenticator app is required for initial sign up. | ||
| + | * The Google Authenticator and Open Authenticator apps should be supported. | ||
| + | * Due to setting a larger key size, Microsoft Authenticator (and potentially Authy) is not supported. | ||
| + | |||
| + | == Additional methods == | ||
| + | |||
| + | * Once you have created an account, you can add additional 2FA methods. | ||
| + | * Webauthn is supported, including hardware keys like a Yubikey. | ||
| + | * When logging in, you can select which method to use. | ||
| + | * To change the default method presented at login, reach out to an administrator. | ||
