Use AccèsD securely

Password

• Never disclose your password to anyone. You should be the only one who knows it.
• The first time you use AccèsD service, choose a password to replace the one you were assigned initially.
• Your password should be between 8 and 128 characters.
• Your password can contain one or more uppercase or lowercase letters, numbers or special characters, and it can be made up of multiple words with or without spaces.
• The advice that appears under the New password field can help you create a more secure password.
• Your password can be used to log in from a computer, tablet or smartphone. It cannot be used to log in by phone.
• For help choosing a secure AccèsD or AccèsD Affaires password, see Choose a good password.
• Don't choose a password based on personal information. And most of all never use any part of your PIN.
• Don't save your password in your computer's memory.
• Don't write your password down anywhere.
• Change your password on a regular basis.

2-step verification

• In addition to your password, you'll need to provide a single-use security code when you sign in. This adds an extra layer of security to your AccèsD account or AccèsD Affaires file.
• Once you've entered your password, a security code will be sent to you by text, push notification or phone call.
• Enter the single-use security code you receive to access your accounts.
• If you don't want to enter a code every time you log in, you can choose how often we ask you for one in your AccèsD settings.
