    Complex Passwords That Last Forever

    By increasing the complexity of your password, it remains secure and longer-lasting. As part of the new password policy, all users must reset their password with the new complexity rules.

    Under the new policy, your password must be at least 12 characters in length and contain three of the following components:

    • an uppercase letter between A-Z
    • a lowercase letter between a-z
    • a number between 0-9
    • at least one of the following special characters
      ,    .     `     ~     !     #     $     %     *     (     )     |

    Note: Common phrases, spaces and other special characters are not supported.

    Single Sign-On Services Expanded

    The college continues to add new single sign-on services for students.

    eCampus (Blackboard), Outlook, OneDrive, Navigate and other college services now use the same user ID and password — your Dallas College username.

    You can view the full list of applications available to you with single sign-on with My Apps.

    Attention eCampus Users

    We recommend that you do not use Microsoft Internet Explorer or Edge browsers for eCampus.

    Additional Security With Multi-Factor Authentication

    As of May 13, 2022, employees and students will be required to use multi-factor authentication:

    • when logging in to anything that uses your Dallas College username and Microsoft login services and
    • while off campus or using Dallas College Guest Wi-Fi.

    With multi-factor authentication, your identity is confirmed in multiple ways to ensure your information stays safe.

    You will be able to choose your second authentication method, either a push notification from a mobile app or a code received by text message or phone call.
