Today's cybersecurity lesson: strengthen your passwords.
It seems like EVERYTHING needs a password. Not just your bank, but EVERY app you use to do your shopping, fill up your car, listen to music… Some of these seem more important – more private – than others. But the truth is that once you become careless with some of your passwords, you open yourself up to cyber attacks. Be alert. Here are five easy ways to strengthen all your passwords, from the mundane to the extremely important.
LENGTH The longer the password, the harder it is to crack.
COMPLEXITY Do not use a simple word or phrase
UNIQUENESS Every account deserves its own password.
IT'S NOT PERSONAL, IT'S BUSINESS. Avoid personal information.
GET HELP, a Password Manager will do it better than you
BONUS ADVICE – change all your passwords regularly
This is just the BEGINNING of protecting your digital information. There are many more steps to consider, such as two-factor authentication or even passcodes that recognize your fingerprint or a scan of your face.
