      What you need to know about Passwords

      Do not allow Internet Explorer to store passwords for you

      Stored passwords allow anyone who can access your machine to log in to your web accounts as you. In addition, there are numerous utilities that can expose that hidden information and actually reveal the password. If you've reused that password for other logins, many systems or web sites could be compromised.

      Be creative

      If you can't remember hard passwords no matter how hard you try, put your password in parenthesis. baseball38 is a weak password. (baseball38) is much better.

      When you change your password, you should always change at least half of it and when you do, change the parentheses as well. Change the parentheses to asterisks, exclamation points or dollar signs. *sallyandbob39* is better than sallyandbob39, and !jimandbetty93! is better than jimandbetty93.


      Choose a password that's hard to crack

      When choosing a password, try to make it by writing a sentence that you can easily remember. For example: "Los Angeles Lakers will win the NBA tournament this year". Then pick up the first letters of each word and also add at the beginning or at the end (or at both parts) some special characters and numbers. For example, with the last sentence you could get the password: =3LALwwtNtty$. This method lets you come up with easy-to-remember passwords that are also hard to crack. And you avoid the need to write such a long password down in order to remember it.

      Great post bro. Stickied!

      I suggest everyone have a password atleast 14 characters long consisting of letters, numbers, and symbols. Also never use the same password for all your accounts and e-mails. If you do and one of your passwords is found out all of your accounts can be compromised.

      Don't forget to use a secure password bro's it's the first line of defense you have for security.

      Without a secure password no amount of encryption is going to help you.
