Increasing Security
you will need to have user’s password include both the data in the token as well as a user
supplied PIN. The PIN is the portion that the user will change periodically.
Complex Passwords: To keep this policy in place, you will need to have users password
include both the token data as well as a user supplied PIN. In this case, the token data may
contain any alpha and upper/lower case letter constraints will be handled in the user supplied
PIN portion of the password.
More difficult passwords can be constructed using password characters created using keypad
created keystrokes such as: “ALT 002”. To perform this you must use the numbers from the keypad.
The keypad numbers are available from the pull-down special keys combo box – these are indicated
as KP_0 through KP_9. Here is what these special keystroke characters may look like in a typical word
processor such as MS Word or NotePad:
☻☻☻☻☻
or
☻☺• ♦☻•☺♦.
