How to Create a Strong Password ?

Hi Friends, Today I came with my new blog which is How to Create a Strong Password ? 


Passwords are one of the most important things under our control that we can use to secure  information online.
A weak password is one of the most common ways cyber criminals are able to gain access to your information. 
By using a weak password, you give opportunity to hackers to steal your data and give them chance to take your bank details and even commit identity theft.

Tips to Create a Strong Password :


  1. Include a mix of numbers, symbols, upper and lower-case letters to make your password harder to guess.
  2. Passwords should be long, strong, and complex which is not easily guess by hackers.
  3. While you are avoiding common phrases also stay away from family names, birthdays and common places of interest. Attackers could research you on social media sites such as Facebook to find out more about you and try to guess your password.
  4. Don't use same password for different Accounts.
  5. Use Two-Factor Authentication.


Things to Include:


  1. At least eight characters.
  2. One or more of each of the following:
    • lower-case letter
    • Upper-case letter
    • Number
    • Punctuation mark
  3. Lookalike characters to protect against password glimpses. Examples:
    • O as in Oscar and the number 0.
    • Lower-case l and upper-case I.
    • The letter S and the $ sign.

Common Mistakes to Avoid:


  1. Words you can find in the dictionary.
  2. Passwords shown as "example strong passwords."
  3. Personal information, such as names and birth dates.
  4. Keyboard patterns, like Qwerty or 12345. Particularly avoid sequences of numbers in order.
  5. Common acronyms.
  6. All one type of character - such as all numbers, all upper-case letters, all lower-case letters, etc.
  7. Repeating characters, such as mmmm,3333,rrrr,222,eeeee.
  8. The same password you use for another application.

Keep your password Secret:

  1. Never tell your password to anyone (this includes significant others, roommates, coworkers, etc.). If you need to grant someone access to your server, set up a separate username and password for that person.
  2. Do not store your password in a plain text file on your computer.
  3. Never send your password over an unsecured connection - including unsecured email.
  4. Time to Time test your current password.
  5. Update your password every five or Six months.
