The necessary measures to ensure the basic cyber security of the platform:
1. Use Strong Passwords
Please refer to the following suggestions to set passwords:
● The length should not be less than 8 characters.
● Include at least two types of characters; character types include upper and lower case letters,
numbers and symbols.
● Do not contain the account name or the account name in reverse order.
● Do not use continuous characters, such as 123, abc, etc.
● Do not use overlapped characters, such as 111, aaa, etc.
38
● Based on actual network requirements, separate networks: if there is no communication
requirement between the two subnets, it is recommended to use VLAN, gatekeeper, etc. to
divide the network to achieve the effect of network isolation.
