Password guidelines
To keep your data secure, create a complex and unique password. This will improve the security of your organization's information in Culture Amp.
Using a password generation tool like LastPass or 1Password can do this for you, or you can create one manually using the best practices below.
A long password is best, say 12 characters long (but at least 8 characters in length). Include at least 3 of the following:
Uppercase letters
Lowercase letters
Numbers
Symbols (!@#$%^&*?_~-)
Unicode characters (e.g. ä, £, ҫ, see other examples)
Things to avoid
Common passwords (e.g. password, password123, admin, etc.)
Keyboard-adjacent characters (e.g. qwertyuiop)
Sequences (e.g. abcdefgh, 12345678)
Repeated characters (e.g. 11111111, xxxxxxxx)
To set a password
Navigate the Culture Amp website www.cultureamp.com. Access the Sign In page by clicking the sign in link in the top right-hand corner.
Click the Can't sign in? link beneath the Sign in button. Enter your email address, then click Send recovery email.
