Account Security
In our continuing efforts to provide a secure computer environment for our clients,
The Clearing Corporation has defined the following account policies:
Web Applications:
- Each person must have their own login. CCorp’s web applications
will allow simultaneous use of a single login to run multiple sessions. Users must take all reasonable precautions to protect the security and
integrity of the userid’s and passwords, and to prevent their unauthorized use.
- Web Application passwords must be a minimum of six (6) and a maximum of sixteen (16) characters in length.
- OTIS/ATOM passwords must be a minimum of six (6) and a maximum of eight (8) characters in length.
- Passwords must contain a combination of alpha and at least two numeric characters.
- Special characters are permitted, such as: !@#$%^&*(){}<>?:~
- Dictionary words and proper names are not permitted as any part of a password.
- Passwords must change substantively from previous passwords (i.e. btrc65 cannot be changed to btrc66.)
- Passwords will not be repeated for thirteen (13) months and the computer access controls will be set to enforce this standard.
- Users will be locked out of web-based applications after three (3) unsuccessful login attempts.
- Users will be prompted to reauthenticate after eight hours.
- Passwords can be reset anytime and should be changed every thirty five (35) days.
