Change Password

These instructions apply to regular AMS360-specific logins, not Vertafore Single Sign- On (VSSO). For Help with changing a VSSO password, click Forgot Password (from the login screen) and use the instructions in the Change account password and security questions topic in VSSO Help.

Passwords are a critical part of a good security system. To effectively manage system security, AMS360 expires passwords every 60 days, requiring each user to enter a new password to continue system access. The structure of the password is also important. The rules for creating a user password in AMS360 are described below.

Password Rules

Type of a new password follows the same rules as required in initial Employee Setup:

• Passwords are case-sensitive
• Does not contain the Login ID
• A minimum of 7 and a maximum of 30 characters in length
• Include characters in at least 3 of the following 4 groups:
• Uppercase character
• Lowercase character
• Numeric character
• Symbol (Symbols include any special character such as !, @, or # available on your keyboard.)
