Please note that your new password must comply with the ZIH Password Policy, which includes the following rules:

• The password has to be at least 9 and at most 127 signs in length.
• It has to contain at least 1 sign from each of the following groups:
  • a - z
  • A - Z
  • 0 - 9
  • ! $ % / ( ) = ? [ ] { } + # < > , ; : . - _

• Other signs (including the space character) are not allowed.

The new password will be synchronized into all connected IT systems and overwrites any previously set service passwords. This synchronization can take up to one hour.
