Changing Your Password

Important

For security purposes, be sure to change the default password!

You can change your password from the Accounts page.

3. Type the new password in the New Password field, and again in the Confirm Password field.
4. Click Apply. The new password will take effect immediately.

Tip

Be sure to write down the new password.

You can also upload and manage personal public keys for your account to enable public key authentication (instead of password-based authentication). Note that this only applies to SSH CLI access to the decoder. For more information, see pubkey (CLI command).

Password Requirements

Note

Basically, all printable characters of the QWERTY keyboard are supported.

Your system may have in place security policies that determine the minimum password length as well as other requirements such as minimum number of upper case characters, digits, and symbols. In this case, you will be prompted to modify your password to comply with these policies.
