Use Strong and Unique Passwords
To create strong and secure passwords:
- Complex Combinations: Use a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Avoid common phrases, dictionary words, or predictable patterns like "123456" or "password."
- Unique for Every Account: Never reuse passwords across multiple accounts. If one account is compromised, other accounts with the same password are at risk.
- Consider a Password Manager: Managing multiple complex passwords can be challenging. Password managers help securely store and generate unique passwords for each account.
- Regularly Update Passwords: Change your passwords periodically, especially if you suspect an account may have been compromised.
