You must reset your password every 3 months.
Password policy
Passwords expire every 3 months as required by the Department of Health and Aged Care's IT security policy.
Your password must:
- be minimum 14 characters and maximum 127 characters
- be different to you last 8 passwords
- not contain your account name or more than two consecutive characters of your full name
Your password may contain:
- English uppercase characters (A-Z)
- English lowercase characters (a-z)
- Numbers (0 through 9)
- Most non-alphabetic characters, including spaces e.g. ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) < > ? , ; . “ / \

As a suggestion, use a passphrase. Passphrases are made up of 4 or more random words making them longer than a traditional password. This makes them harder to guess but easy to remember. Passphrases should be long, unpredictable and unique.
