WHY YOU ALLOW TO STEEL YOUR PASSWORD
Bad passwords
20% of all passwords are easily guessed by others. Example
of bad passwords: I love you, big ben, London,
password, 12345, qwerty, your name, your birthday, etc.
Have a strong password
The best way to
prevent someone from getting your passwords, is to have a strong password to
being with The best passwords are more than 8 characters long, contain at least
1 capital letter, and contain at least 1 number. This will make it almost
impossible for your password to be brute forced. you may ask, What is Brute forcing?
It’s when a hacker runs a program that
tries every letter/number/symbol
combination to guess your password. If you follow these tips for a stronger
password, it will take years to brute force your password.
Security questions
The easiest way someone can gain access into your accounts,
is to guess the answers to the security questions of your account. These are
the questions you're asked when you first make an email account, like What was
your first dogs name?. Make sure the security questions you choose have answers
that aren't easily guessable. If you have a security question that asks Where
did you meet your spouse?, which is your birth place? These are bad questions to choose. Anyone who browses your face book
or asks someone you know can get the answer to this. So make sure you choose
questions no one knows the answer to, or make the answers something only you
would know.
Never Try not to use the same passwords for all of your accounts
Make your e-mail password different from your face book
password, and so on. If someone manages to get one of your passwords, they will
have access to ALL your accounts if they use the same password.
IF YOU MAKE A PASSWORD INCLUDING 8+ NUMBERS, 1 UPPERCASE LETTER,1LOVERCASE LETTER AND A SPECIAL CHARACTER. IT WOULD TAKE ABOUT MORE THAN 204 THOUSAND YEARS TO STEAL THIS PASSWORD
