Passwords

Passwords are used to grant access to:

  • Systems that reside at any HHS Enterprise facility
  • The HHS Enterprise network
  • Stored HHS Enterprise information
Passwords are used for the following purposes:
  • Preventing compromises of confidential information
  • Providing a minimum level of user authentication
  • Establishing user accountability
Users should not use:
  • The same password for HHS Enterprise accounts as for other non-HHS Enterprise access (e.g., personal ISP account, option trading, and benefits, etc.)
  •  The Remember Password feature of applications
