You can create a sample password with the following button:

Passwords must be at least 8 characters long, but must not exceed 12 characters.

Passwords must contain characters from three of the four following categories:

Upper case letters from A to Z (no Ä Ö Ü)
Lower case letters from a to z (no ä ö ü ß)
digits from 0 to 9
other characters, examples are: - # = . ! - _ + * ( )

DO NOT use the following special characters: $ " ' §°^ß

The sentence:

A password is always secret!

leads to the following, hardly guessable

password: !1Pw=aS!

Another sentence: This is a new service for me!

Results in the password: TiaNS4m!

• from the login name (also not backwards, capitalised, double, etc.)
• from the first or last name in any form, from the date of birth, nicknames.
• General: Not from information directly related to the person, such as telephone number, ID card number, car number, house number, place of residence, street, etc.
• from similar or consecutive numbers or letters.
• Umlauts and special characters such as § $ " ' ° ^ ß may not be used.

not be easy to guess,

be easy to remember, so that it can be entered quickly and blindly, but cannot be grasped by other people, For example, it is good to form sentences, using the first letter of each word - mixed with the special characters used.

Be creative ...
