Due to difficulties experienced during implementation, OIT has postponed plans to begin on April 12 to check for upper and lower case password sensitivity for all university online applications. A new implementation date will be determined after further testing. However, it’s always a good idea to use mixed case, numbers, and special characters along with other techniques to help maximize the strength of your password.
