Strong passwords are essential to protecting HCPSS systems from attackers. Beginning Monday, January 24, staff passwords that do not meet the minimum password requirements will be denied. To that end:
- Compromised or banned passwords may not be used and must be changed immediately.
- Passwords with low strength must be changed after 90 days.
Impacted staff accounts will be presented with either a warning message that the password will expire or a message that the password must be changed. Staff can ensure their passwords meet the minimum requirements by changing their passwords by clicking on the Change Password button at the bottom of the hcpss.me website.
These new password procedures do not apply to student accounts.
