Although your 4 to 6 number User PIN gives you reasonable security, your Admin Password (if long enough) can be more secure, because it can be made up of any of the following characters:
a-z or 0-9 or @ or   -   or  . or   _

Your password can be between 6 and 40 characters long, but it is best not to use words that are found in the dictionary. Also, for extra security, try to include numbers as well as letters in your password. The longer the password the better the security.

You are responsible for ensuring that your choice of pin and password is secure enough for your needs.

The Account is secured by its Admin Password that can be made up of numbers and letters of up to 40 characters long.

The User PIN protects an individual number and allows any PIN holder to reroute and control one number only. The PIN user cannot get access to any personal account information. A PIN has between 4 and 6 numbers only so that ordinary tone phones (that cannot handle letters) can be used to command reroutes. Most users find the PIN reroute method a fast and convenient way to change one number.

For corporate managers and major system control applications, the Account and Admin Password is typically used to reroute a group of numbers at the same time and secure business critical telecoms.

The User PIN is typically issued to staff both temporary and permanent, since Admin can easily logon to the Account and override and change the PIN if or when staff leave.
