What is an Insperity Passport?
Insperity Passport is a two-factor authentication, single sign-on process that provides simplicity, security, and time-savings by allowing you to sign on once to seamlessly access multiple Insperity services. Insperity Passport provides the following benefits:
- Reduces password fatigue by reducing the number of username and password combinations you need to remember.
- Provides additional security by requiring two-factor authentication to confirm you are who you say you are.
- Reduces the likelihood of falling victim to phishing scams.
- Saves you time by not requiring you to sign on multiple times while using Insperity services or having to troubleshoot sign-on issues for multiple usernames.
Password Tips
When creating your password, note the following guidelines:
- Passwords must be 8 characters long.
- Passwords must include 3 of the following: upper case, lower case, numbers, and special characters. The following special characters are allowed:! @ # $ % & * ( ) – _ [ ] { } \ | < > / ?
