How secure is a number-only PAC?
• This is a very valid question – the most secure passwords are a combination of letters, numbers and symbols, and upper- and lower-case characters. Why is this still a secure PAC? … You have to provide BOTH your account number and PAC to access your account. PAC’s are not stored on the member’s computer, so a ‘crack’ search on your computer will not reveal your PAC. Note that if you enable your browser’s ‘Remember Password’ feature, your PAC will be stored on your computer. We recommend that you disable this feature. “Session Cookies” that do store the PAC temporarily while the member is accessing their account online, EXPIRE and are DELETED from your computer after 4 minutes with no MemberDirect browser activity. If you have any security questions, please ask us! Contact Linda McLaren at 519-436-4590 x 3116 or lmclaren@unigasco.com.
