Its important to maintain a secure password. To do so follow the steps given below.
A password must have a set of alphabets(uppercase & lowercase), numerical, symbols. Our password must not contain any of the part of our name, birth date, favorite dishes, etc which can be easily guessed by people.
Make password of at least 8 characters long. Your password must not contain your username, real name or your company name. It must be different from previous password.Your password must contain alphabets, numbers, special symbols.
- Create a shortcut to remember piece of information. For example, pick a phrase that is meaningful and understandable to you, such as My son's birthday is 4 August, 2012. Using that phrase as your guide, you might use Msbi4Aug/2012 for your password.
- You can substitute number, symbols and misspellings for letters or words to make a strong password. For example, considering the above example of son's birthday, you might use M$'sBdayiz412.
- You can relate your password to your favorite hobby. For example, I love to play basketball could become ILuv2PlayB@sB@ll.
To manage password, people turn to password managers like EnPass, LastPass, Dashlane and 1password where you can store all the passwords.
