About your username and password
Your username is assigned by Viba Fima and cannot be changed by
you. Your password however, is a different story. You choose
your own password and can change it whenever you feel it is necessary. We offer some suggestions on selecting passwords below.
Acquiring your username
and password
To receive your secure username and
select a password, use your Access Code to
register on the first page of this
web site. Your Access Code can be found on
the form sent to your business via US mail.
No Access Code? Request Membership
to receive one.
Once you receive your username and have selected a password you are automatically a VIP
member! Use both whenever you want to sign into the Vibase. You will
no longer need your Access Code.
Selecting a password
The art of selecting a password is to choose
one that is easy for you to remember but hard for others to guess. To
that end, we offer some suggestions:
Password
Strategies
-
Take the first letter of each word in a recognizable phrase. For example, the phrase
"our daughter was born on August 10, 1999" can be used to generate this password "odwbo081099".
A variation of this scheme is to use the last letter of each word.
-
Use misspellings or numeric substitution to letters. For example, the password "th1sagr8tt1m3"
can be read as "this is a great time" with the number "1" standing for the letter "i", "3" for "e", and
"8" for "eat".
-
Drop vowels off a long word or phrase, then sprinkle the result with some numbers. For example,
the password "1hpptms2" comes from "hippopotamus" with all vowels removed and 1 and 2 added to each end.
Some
Considerations
Confusing
characters
Be careful about using letters
or numbers that may be confused with one another.
Some computers
may display these characters better than others. When recording
your password for safekeeping, be sure to write these characters
in a way that you can easily distinguish them.
-
0 (number zero) and O (capital 'O')
-
0 (number zero) and Q (capital 'Q')
-
1 (number one) and l (lowercase 'l')
"Good"
Passwords
-
Easy for you to remember but hard for others to guess correctly.
-
6 or more characters long.
-
Combination of upper case and lower case letters, numbers, and punctuations.
-
Have some kind of story that is easy to remember.
"Bad"
Passwords
-
Prone to be forgotten or easy to guess correctly.
-
Any word in an English or foreign dictionary.
-
Telephone numbers, credit card numbers, social security numbers, street
addresses, common names.
-
Predictable sequences of numbers (such as '123') or letters (such as 'qwerty').
-
Common phrases or quotes.
-
Anything shorter than 6 letters.
Password
Safekeeping
