Strong passwords are your first line of defense against cyber attacks. A secure password should be long, complex, and unique for each account you use.

Password Best Practices:

• Length: Use at least 12 characters (longer is better)
• Complexity: Mix uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols
• Uniqueness: Never reuse passwords across different accounts
• Unpredictability: Avoid personal information and common patterns
• Regular Updates: Change passwords periodically, especially after breaches

Password Strength Levels:

• Weak: Can be cracked in seconds to minutes
• Fair: Can be cracked in hours to days
• Good: Can be cracked in months to years
• Strong: Can be cracked in decades to centuries
• Very Strong: Virtually uncrackable with current technology

Additional Security Tips:

• Use a password manager to store and generate passwords
• Enable two-factor authentication (2FA) whenever possible
• Be cautious of phishing attempts and suspicious websites
• Regularly monitor your accounts for unauthorized access
• Keep your devices and software updated
