When it comes to creating secure passwords, following best practices is crucial to safeguard your online accounts.
THE GOOD:
Good passwords, such as “P@ssw0rd123,” are lengthy and include a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols. It’s vital to have a distinct strong password for each online account to prevent easy breaches. Using a password manager to generate and store complex passwords securely is highly recommended.
THE BAD:
On the flip side, bad passwords like “password,” “123456,” or those based on personal information like birthdays or pet names, pose significant security risks.
THE UGLY:
Avoid using easily guessable patterns or phrases, such as “qwerty” or “ilovemydog.”
*Remember, never reuse passwords, opt for two-factor authentication for added security, and utilize a password manager to keep your login credentials safe. Stay vigilant and proactive in ensuring the protection of your online presence.
