EDGAR Password Changes

Filers will be required to provide twelve character passwords instead of eight character passwords when logging into both the EDGAR Filing Website and the EDGAR Online Forms Management Website. Filers who do not update their password to twelve characters will be prompted to update it each time they log in.

EDGAR Last Account Activity

The EDGAR Filing Website and the EDGAR Online Forms Website home pages now include a "Last Account Activity" heading. This will display the date, time, and whether the last login attempt was successful or not. Filers will also have the ability to review account activity for the last 30 calendar days on both websites by using the Login History link.
