How to Create or Generate a Strong Password
Creating a strong password is crucial to protect your personal and financial information from cyber threats. Here’s a concise guide on how to create robust passwords that can effectively safeguard your online accounts.
Characteristics of a Strong Password
A strong password should be long, complex, unpredictable, and unique. Aim for at least 12-16 characters with a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Avoid easily guessable information like birthdays or common words. Each password should be unique to a specific account to prevent multiple accounts from being compromised.
Steps to Create a Strong Password
Start with a memorable base phrase, then add complexity by substituting some letters with numbers and symbols. For example, "GreenDolphinSwims2024!" becomes "Gr33nD0lph!nSw!ms2024!" This method ensures your password is both strong and memorable.
