Passwords

Health Net's password policy contains rules to enhance security. Each user needs to create a password that has:

  • Between 6 and 15 characters
  • At least one alpha (A to Z) character
  • At least one numeric character (0-9)

Accounts are locked after 5 failed password entry attempts.

Password Issues?

Please note that cutting and pasting a password (e.g. password vault) will not work.

To make this process easier you can choose to see your password as you type. To see your password (for a short time) just click the checkbox that states "Unmask my password (this attempt only)."

Sign-in Seal

A sign-in seal is part of Health Net's security system. It's designed to be secure at login no matter what computer you are signing in from. It adds an extra layer of protection to prevent unapproved access. It also protects you from online fraud.

HowDoes a Sign-in Seal Protect Me?

A sign-in seal is secret coding between your computer and HealthNetOregon.com. You start by setting it up on your computer. Then, once you sign in to HealthNetOregon.com, your sign-in seal tells you that you're seeing the real HealthNetOregon.com site, not a phishing site.
