##contain at least one lowercase letter, an uppercase letter, digit
##not contain your first name, last name or username
##be different from a previous passphrase you've used at RCS

##Add your mobile phone number if you want the option to reset your passphrase via text message.
##Choose a security question to answer if you forget your passphrase.
