Beginning May 31st 2024 a new PIN criteria policy will become the agency standard. Below are the new criteria and a walkthrough of the steps needed to update your PIN if required.


Windows Hello PIN Requirements:

  • minimum length 8 characters
  • lowercase, uppercase, numbers, and special characters are all allowed
  • no expiration


When you select to log in with your PIN, you will be notified that your organization requires you to change your PIN (if your current criteria does not meet requirements).
