It is a good policy to routinely change your password to protect data, even in what you may consider a 'safe' environment. In the workplace, failure to apply an appropriate password policy could leave you in breach of Data Protection laws.
* Ensure that your password is an adequate length; 6 characters should be the absolute minimum number of characters in the password.
* Ensure that your password is not open to dictionary attacks. Use a mixture of upper and lower case letters and numerics, and avoid words or names. Consider using the first letter from each word in a phrase that you will remember easily but is an unfamiliar acronym.
* Ensure that your password is changed regularly; at minimum, change it every ninety days.
The above should be considered a starting point: It is not a comprehensive list and it **will not guarantee security**.
Use the *Change Password* dialog to change your password:
* The name displayed in the *User* field is the role for which you are modifying the password; it is the role that is associated with the server connection that is highlighted in the tree control.
* Enter the password associated with the role in the *Current Password* field.
* Enter the desired password for in the *New Password* field.
* Re-enter the new password in the *Confirm Password* field.
