Support CenterIs there a reason why a password is now required in my SureFire software?
TheIRS Security Summitimposed stricter requirements for handling sensitive taxpayer data.
As members of the Summit, our products conform with the recommendations and best practices set forth by the Summit inIRS Publication 4557,Safeguarding Taxpayer Data.
The initial release of SureFire will require all users (except the Training user and other users assigned to the Training security group) to establish a password associated with their user name.
Passwords must follow the following guidelines:
8-20 Characters
1 UPPER case letter
1 lower case letter
1 number
1 special character (ex. ? ! $ _ *)
Upon installation, you will be prompted to enter a password immediately for the ADMIN user.
Additional Security Changes:
User passwords will expire after 90 days.
After this time period, you will be required to enter a new password for all users that follow the guidelines above.
Users are required to reenter their password after being logged into SureFire for 24 hours regardless of activity.
Users are required to reenter their password after 30 minutes of inactivity in SureFire.
