Scope: This policy applies to all individuals who have user accounts on Spread X Securities Private Limited systems and networks, regardless of whether they are employees, Auditor, channel partner, or Investor.

Password Requirements:

Password Complexity:
Passwords must be at least 12 characters long. Passwords must contain a combination of upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Passwords should not include common dictionary words or easily guessable patterns.
Password Protection:​
Passwords must be kept confidential and not shared with anyone, including colleagues or helpdesk personnel. Passwords should not be written down or stored in an unsecured manner. Passwords must not be used for multiple accounts or systems.
