10 tips and tricks for creating strong passwords

Brian from Mount Roskill

1) DO NOT USE letters and numbers in sequence (e.g. qwerty, abcde, 12345, asdf).
2) NEVER use your birthdate as your password.
3) COMBINE letters, numbers, and symbols (ex: $, %, !) to form a password of at least eight characters.
4) REFRAIN from using your name as your password.
5) DON’T create a password that includes any of your personal information as these details can be found online. 6) Additionally, steer clear from using your family members’ names and birthdays, pet names.
7) AVOID using overly common passwords, such as P@$$w0rd, password, 1234567890, ioveyou, etc.
8) STOP reusing passwords. Every new password you create should be unique.
9) STRONG passwords can be long passphrases where you combine multiple words into a long string of characters (ex: correcthorsebatterystaple, randommousebottlepickle). Don’t forget to add some numbers and symbols, too!
10) REFRAIN from changing just one character whenever you update your password (ex: MyG@laxyPassw0rd01, MyG@laxyPassw0rd02, MyG@laxyPassw0rd03).
Do not write passwords in notepads or on sticky notes!
