How to easily create a powerful password
| January 14, 2022 |
1. choose a phrase that you can remember easily
2. Use the first letter of each word, mixing up upper and lower case
3. Sprinkle in a couple of numbers (like a date you like) add a special character
4. 8-character passwords are no longer safe (thanks to newer cracking software), we recommend 12 characters
5. We also recommend that you do not use the same password for more than 2 applications or websites each time. Reason: data breaches do exist and if your credentials were leaked once, hackers will try to use them again. To help you, you can use password managers.
