Happy Password Day!

Password Day 2016

Password security is more important than you may notice. There are plenty of ways to protect your accounts and to be smart with your passwords!

Switch it up
Imagine having one key to your car, home, bank, work, and safe....someone gets a hold of one key and there goes all of your security! Make sure to have a variety of passwords within accounts, making no two alike. This will make it difficult for someone to hack into multiple accounts belonging to you.

Make it personalized
Common passwords are usually: password1, qwe123, or even your name with birthday. GET CREATIVE! Make it your favorite TV show, your pets name, or even your first words! It helps to remember when the password is significant to you, and makes it harder for a stranger to crack.

Is it logical?
Sometimes we tend to get a little TOO creative with our passwords. It can be tedious and confusing to reach around for different symbols, and that can also slow you down! Put punctuation, capitals, and symbols where it makes sense!

Wi-Fi Secure?
Avoid logging into accounts with passwords if there is not a secure Wi-Fi connection. Under and unsecured connection, it allows hackers access to your information.


HAPPY PASSWORD DAY
now that we covered that, GO make sure you are secured on all accounts!
