We would like to encourage everyone when they are updating their password to review the Glow Community Rules .
When setting up a new password it it vital to remember – Be secure: always keep your Glow password to yourself and remember to log out of Glow when you are no longer using it.
The Digital Learning Team recommend using the Three Random Words method to select a new password. You can find Password Guidance on Glow Connect to help stay safer online and to find out what makes a strong password when using Glow.
When setting a password in Glow there is a minimum requirement and you will get a password rating as you type to reflect this.

Users can not use any reuse any of their last 12 passwords. It is best practice to give RM Unify 5 – 10 minutes to process a new password before opening any apps within Glow.
