Creating and Managing Strong Passwords

Introduction

Passwords protect your accounts and data from unauthorized access. Weak passwords are easily guessed or cracked by attackers.

Best Practices for Strong Passwords

• Use a minimum of 12 characters including letters, numbers, and symbols.

• Avoid using personal information like birthdates or common words.

• Use unique passwords for different accounts.

• Change passwords regularly and immediately if compromised.

Using Password Managers

• Store passwords securely in an approved password manager.

• Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) for additional security.
