To achieve a combination that leaves your data <strong>safely protected<\/strong>, it is important to spend some time developing a keyword that is difficult to be broken. The challenge is practicality x security. Complex passwords in general offer greater security, but are more difficult to be remembered; have simple passwords are exactly the opposite.<\/p>\n<p>Experts say we should not use the same password on more than one service. This is a fact: if the hacker break into your Facebook, also have access to your e-mail, Twitter or any other records you have.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Here are some rules that will help when creating a complex password, but easy to memorize and other tips:<\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Avoid words found in dictionaries or simple sequences such as <strong>&#8220;123456&#8221;<\/strong>;<\/li>\n<li>Use a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters with numbers and symbols;<\/li>\n<li>Take a long phrase that means something to you like, <strong>&#8220;I like reading and cooking&#8221;<\/strong> and turns into a password with substitutions of numbers and symbols like: &#8220;<strong>!L1KerE@d1ngaNd&amp;c)ok!nG<\/strong>&#8220;;<\/li>\n<li>If you can add spaces between words, is even better. Example: &#8220;<strong>! L1Ke rE@d1ng aNd&amp; c)ok!nG<\/strong>&#8220;;<\/li>\n<li>A good example is the password &#8220;My 1st passphrase&#8221;, alternating uppercase, lowercase, numbers and symbols and also includes spaces, complicates the life of the hacker, even being an easy password to be memorized;<\/li>\n<li>Instead of creating a complex password, create a password that is longer (with 14 characters or more). Long sentence is more efficient than a short password, preferably with random characters;<\/li>\n<li>Use a password manager &#8211; Who likes to complicate can find a safe way to store your passwords, since it is very unlikely to remember something like &#8220;<strong>K4I58m3uvUvYWSFGmr6Bmc<\/strong>&#8220;. Password managers are excellent, but also require a master password;<\/li>\n<li>So keep a written copy of your password on a sheet of paper, in a well secure location. The same goes for if you prefer to keep all your passwords written;<\/li>\n<li>Change your passwords regularly;<\/li>\n<li>Use different passwords for banks, emails and other sites;<\/li>\n<li>Do not use dates or facts that may be found online;<\/li>\n<li>Do not send your passwords by post, email or using other ways;<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<ul>\n<li>Whenever possible, type the passwords on your own specific devices and avoid to type the passwords on public computers.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Is your password strong?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>According to sites specialized in testing passwords, the following combinations are very strong. &#8220;<strong>! L1Ke rE@d1ng aNd&amp; c)ok!nG<\/strong>&#8221; Take 260 sextillion years to be broken.<\/p>\n<p>Remember that the said passwords should not be used because they have already been made public. In addition, the tips mentioned are common for web users.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>We all know that weak passwords can be broken easily.
