To do this, you can use the following steps:<\/p>\n<p><b>1. Use Alphanumeric Values with \u2063Special Characters<\/b><br \/>\nCreate a complex password for\u2063 your\u2064 keystore with uppercase and\u200c lowercase letters, along \u200dwith numbers\u200c and special \u200dcharacters.

It \u200dcan prevent malicious\u2064 people from trying to use the same\u2063 old password over and over \u200dagain. \u2063Make sure that \u2064when creating a new password, it\u2019s at least as\u2062 secure as the previous one.<\/p>\n<p><b>3.
