Your password is your key. That is why password security is so important. When a hacker finds your key, it is like they have access to your online belongings. Here are seven hints I find most helpful to keep passwords safe.
- Avoid using real words or phrases.
- Include special characters.
- Do not keep your password written near your computer.
- Use something other than personal information such as your birth date.
- Sharing is not caring. Keep your password to yourself.
- Change your password on a scheduled basis.
- Use a different password for each account or website.
If you follow all of these suggestions, you are quite on your way to having good password security. I hope you found this information new and helpful.
