I checked my passwords and they are good. I do need to start changing them every so often but I have so many places that I think I would get confused. I will try though so I don't get hacked.

Even how secure you the passwords you are giving to protect your business, still there are people who are challenged to take the chance of cracking it and for them it is a great achievement. There are also chances the people have the same password, it is better to keep several strong password for every account you have online, so that if one is cracked down, there the other account will still be safe.

I used password length between 12 and 15 for all my password and combination of number, uppercase symbols, lowercase symbols and other symbol. In other to make your password very strong to cracked, you have to used all the combination of number, letters and signs and symbols on your keyboard. If you can not come up with a strong password, it is better to install password generator, with a click, you will have a strong password. Thanks for the nice post and the explanation.

It is a good course that will provide you with a lot of good information about IT security. When I create new passwords I ensure the new password contains upper-case, lower-case, numbers, and special characters (like *) and are at least 8 characters long. These types of passwords are much less likely to be cracked by a brute force attack. Hope that helps.

So I had to memorize a 6 digit long random number and letters (with varying case) password. Since then, I just use variations of it. A great password, and I have little fear of it being cracked because it's truly random. Years ago I had a website that generated a password for you and wouldn’t let you set your own.

To the hackers who are not money oriented, not robbers, it is passion and fun, and most of the hackers I know do never hurt anobody. They just want to know that they are able to crack even more passwords. Usually people do not even notice that someone cracked them. But of course I think it is better be safe and to use difficult passwords. I actually use various passwords, codes and difficult algorythms. Well, it is not necessarily an attack to break a password.
