Consumer Reports has shared a few key strategies to help strengthen\u2064 your overall password security.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Make use of multiple characters in your passwords. At least 10-12 characters is recommended, to ensure maximum \u2063security from potential hackers.<\/li>\n<li>Refrain\u200d from using common \u200cwords or phrases that can easily be\u200c guessed. Try using \u200ba combination \u2063of letters, numbers, and symbols \u200bto make your passwords \u2063more secure.<\/li>\n<li>Don\u2019t use the same password for \u2063all of\u200b your accounts. \u200bCreating \u200bseparate passwords for each of\u2064 your online profiles \u200bcan help reduce \u2062your \u200dsecurity risk.<\/li>\n<li>Enable \u2064two-step authentication whenever possible. This adds an extra layer of \u200bsecurity by requiring\u200b you to enter a code, typically sent\u2064 via text each\u2062 time you log into your account.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>It\u2019s also important to change your passwords often, update your security measures whenever necessary, and never share your password with\u200d others. Keeping these tips \u200cin mind can help protect \u200cyour digital accounts and secure \u2062your \u2064precious data.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"2-make-your-password-unique-and-unhackable\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"2_Make_Your_Password%E2%81%A3_Unique_and%E2%80%8D_Unhackable\"><\/span>2. Make Your Password\u2063 Unique and\u200d Unhackable<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><b>1. Create the Right\u200c Kind of Password<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Creating\u200d a strong password\u2062 that cannot be easily guessed is imperative for protecting your data online. While the most commonly used\u200b passwords are \u200cthe ones which are the simplest to remember, \u200bthey\u2019re also\u200c the most susceptible to being hacked. Choose a combination of letters, numbers, and special characters to create more secure passwords. Especially, remember to use \u2062hard-to-guess words like \u2018xoccerzx\u2019 and phrases like \u2018swimdolphinQ\u2019.\u2063<\/p>\n<p><b>2. Do Not Reuse Passwords<\/b><\/p>\n<p>When it comes to security, using the \u2063same password over multiple accounts is never a good idea.\u200b Even if you opt for a strong password, it can easily be hacked \u2063if it remains the same across multiple online accounts. Therefore, it\u2019s important to make sure your passwords for each account\u2064 are different.<\/p>\n<p>To help you remember them, make a \u2062note of the passwords you\u2063 use, so you don\u2019t end up using the same one over\u200b again. Alternatively, you can\u2064 use \u200ddigital password managers in the form \u2062of apps\u2062 or extensions, which can securely store the passwords and even generate new ones for you.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"3-tips-for-creating-a-secure-password\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Tips_for_%E2%80%8CCreating_a%E2%80%8C_Secure_Password\"><\/span>3. Tips for \u200cCreating a\u200c Secure Password<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p>Creating secure \u2063passwords is an essential step to\u2064 protect your \u200bdata from cyberthreats. As\u2062 hackers and online criminals become increasingly advanced,\u2064 so too should \u200dyour defences. Here are 3 tips to help you create \u2063a secure \u200bpassword:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Use a Passphrase<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Rather than\u200d using a single \u2063word gone multiple characters to create your password, consider using a passphrase. \u2062A passphrase is a string\u2064 of four or \u2062more words with spaces in between them which together form a phrase.\u2062 For instance, \u201cCrimson Seas Run Quickly!\u201d is significantly more secure than, \u201ccrmson$easrunquickly\u201d as it is much\u2062 harder to guess.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Include \u200bSpecial Characters<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is highly recommended to include special characters and numbers within your\u200c password. This \u2062is\u2063 because it will increase the \u2018entropy\u2019, or\u200b security, of your password. Most\u200d websites also require either special characters or a combination of numbers and letters, so using them will prevent people from having to be\u200d reminded of your secure password.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t Reuse<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>It is incredibly important \u200dnever to reuse passwords, especially for important online accounts\u2064 like banks, emails \u200cand social media accounts. Different website have different security measures, and it is possible for one website to be hacked, thus leaving access to other accounts too. Consider using a password manager to keep track of your\u200c passwords.<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"4-the-benefits-of-using-consumer-reports-password-guidelines\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"4_The_Benefits_of%E2%81%A3_Using_Consumer_Reports_Password_Guidelines\"><\/span>4.
