When it comes to a secure website and passwords it is all in
your hands to create a password that a hacker simply cannot
crack. However, this will require that you be creative and use
everything at your fingertips to create the strongest password
possible for a secure web site.
Tip #1 - Use All Spaces
No matter how many characters are available for your password
you should be sure to use every one of them. The more characters
available for your password and the more you use makes it that
much harder to figure out the combination. Always make use of
all characters available for a strong and secure password.
Tip #2 - Obscure not Obvious
Personal information such as names, birthdays, nicknames, pet?s
names, social security numbers, and the like should never, ever,
ever be used because these are way too obvious and too easy to
crack. The more you avoid using things like this as your
passwords, the more secure your login areas will be.
Tip #3 - Non-Alphabet
Never use just the alphabet to create your password. If you
include numbers, hyphens, dashes, and other symbols or
characters, you will have a more secure password which is
increasingly harder to crack with every different symbol or
number you add.
Tip #4 - Don?t Write Your Password
This tip you should already know, but once you have created your
super secure password to protect your website, commit it to
memory, never share it with anyone, and never, ever write it
down. No matter how secure you think the location is, if you
write the password down you are decreasing the security of your
website.
Tip #5 - Case
Also, make sure you use upper case as well as lowercase in your
password if the password is case sensitive. This will add even
more variables to your password that will increase security.
Tip #6 - Create a Word
You do not have to use a word that already exists, you can
actually create your own word with a mixture of numbers, cases,
and symbols and before you know it you will have a secure
password that nobody can crack!
Tip #7 - Multiple Passwords
As tempting as it might be to use only one password for all of
your web sites logins you should never ever do this. To maintain
security at all website logins you should create a special
system for creating passwords on different sites and stick to
that system. This way, you'll always know the passwords but they
will differ from site to site.
Tip #8 - Logout
Always logout! For some reason people think when they have
finished their business they can just continue on about the
Internet without logging out. This decreases your security level
and if you are logged in anyone can access your account. Because
of this you should always logout.
Tip #9 - Close the Browser
TO be even more sure that your password and personal information
are protected you should always close your browser. This is the
safest practice and one you should always engage in.
Tip #10 - Manage Your Passwords
If you have problems managing all of your passwords or
remembering them, consider using a password manager. This will
help you keep your login information safe and secure without
having to remember all of the difficult passwords you created.
