# Change password

*Applicable to standalone solutions only*

You can change the password you use to access the Admin panel. It's recommended that you change your password regularly for security purposes.

To change your password:

{% stepper %}
{% step %}
Go to **Security Settings** in the menu.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
On the **Change Password** tab, do the following:

* In the **Current password** field, enter your current password.
* In the **New password** field, enter a new password.

  The new password must meet the following criteria:

  * At least **8 characters** long
  * Includes **1 uppercase letter**
  * Includes **1 number**
  * Includes **1 special character**: `! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) - _ } { . +`
* In the **Confirm password** field, re‑enter the new password.

The password fields are masked with asterisks. To view the entered password, click the **eye** icon on the right side of each field.

{% endstep %}

{% step %}
Click **Next**.
{% endstep %}

{% step %}
If two-factor authentication (2FA) is enabled for your profile, enter the verification code sent to your email or generated in your authenticator app (such as **Google Authenticator**) to confirm the password change.
{% endstep %}
{% endstepper %}

If all the fields are valid and the current password is correct, your password is updated.
