How to create a strong Password

A strong password is hard to create. to remember and to type it  that why so many people choose  a password which is very simple to remember and thus week 

remember  that strong password are for keeping hackers out of your account

here are the tricks to create a strong password  and easy to remember  but before i get there here are some rules for creating a strong password

 Never make a password easy to guess

you know that when Adobe was attacked last month, more than 38 million users (which was previously thought to only be 2.9 million) had private data stolen, including credit cards and Social Security numbers.

Adobe has since revealed that out of those 38 million people, 1.9 million used the password "123456" to protect their account. that really not protecting when you need to protect.

here are 20 most common and easy-to-crack passwords found in Adobe's database  

1.123456
2.123456789
3.password
4.adobe123
5.12345678
6.qwerty
7.1234567

15.adobe1
16.macromedia
17.azerty
18.iloveyou
19.aaaaaa
20.654321


really?
Don't risk using a weak password to protect your accounts.
Hackers look at these lists too and they have computer programs that can guess common passwords,
password that you think are hard might not be hard as you think for hacker to get in a shot time.

The strongest password is one that contains a random collection of letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers and symbols. i know  that's nearly impossible to remember but that how things must be done.
Shorter passwords are much easier to crack, so hackers go for those first. The longer passwords take hackers longer to decode, as long as they aren't obvious like "123456789". Hackers scan for the obvious ones first a different way.

the strong the  password the long the time it take for hacker to crack your password or to guess it 
hacker don't don't even try password which are 8 characters long because they take long to crack but am not saying that 8 character long password id the good choice and strong because computer also are getting powerful so even 8 character long password can now less time to crack

Rules to create a strong password 



1. A strong password has to contain a random collection of letters (uppercase and lowercase), numbers and symbols

2. It has to be at least 8 characters or longer

3. never use the same password for different account each account must have it own unique password 

Example of a strong password 

something like "R2(*-*).^Gw-wG5+6" is a really strong  password.
You can use a catch phrase, quote or even a song lyric.  but then don't just put it like you found it  when you choose a lyrics like "we are going home"  a lyrics that you know that you can't forget to make it  a strong password you are not just going to put it just they way it is  .make  
W?|_|e(R)!G0H&m 
what  i did here is  i took a  we are  i turned it to W?|_|e(R)! and going home i turned it to G0H&m
and that how i made it strong  a password is strong when you are mixing characters am not saying you should take password that i just did there but am just giving you the idea.

This allowed me to develop and enhance my skills more effectively. Currently on a cyber... Continue Reading
