From the awesome team at Safety in Canada:
“Passwords are an essential part of life online – and if we’re not careful about keeping them secret, they can cause big problems. By understanding the risks and making passwords stronger, we can feel a little more secure.”
Tips for creating a strong password:
- Use the first letter of a quote or song lyric (result is not a dictionary word)
- Add uppercase letters, numbers, and special characters
- Be careful where you write it down and store it
- Don’t use the same password everywhere
