Hello everyone, today I will tell you how you can secure your password so that it can not easily be decoded.

As we all know that in today's digital world it is very difficult to secure our data and privacy from being theft.
Password is the only way through which we can protect our data and maintain our privacy. 


So let's start with two questions...

1. What is a secure password?
2. How to create a secure/strong password?

Hackers attack your account to steal your sensitive information. To protect this information we use a complex and long password that can not be easily crack, which includes characters, numbers, and special symbols. This complex password is known as a secure password.

Now, to create a strong and secure password, first of all, try to create a password in your own system, it is more secure.
                      
When you create a password try to include a combination of numbers, character, and a special symbol.
You can also use a password generator but try to use an offline generator so that your password doesn't get interpreted.

If you want to check how strong is your password, you can use tool tike How Secure is my Password? 
similarly, Microsoft users can use the Microsoft security password checker and mac users can check on their built-in password assistant.


Now, some principles of good password security practice in daily life:


  • Never disclose usernames and passwords to third parties even not with your colleagues.
  • Never store usernames and passwords on paper or in an unencrypted computer file.
  • Always login with a trusted device.
  • Update your account password at least every 6 months.
  • Do not use passwords that have been used in the past.
  • Run regular virus scans on your computer.
  • If you have to share password use trusted sites.
  • Never save password on public devices like systems of a cyber cafe.
  • Use Two-factor Authentication which gives an OTP(one-time-password) during login on your registration number.

Things which you have to avoid during password creation:

  • Never use your personal information in the password like contact number, address, etc.
  • Avoid the simple and common combination of numbers and characters like 12345, 123123, 123456789, 111111, qwerty, abcabc, password, etc.
  • Never use word of a dictionary which easily crack using password hacking tools.
  • Try to avoid username and password both the same.

I am sure if you remember this all point during password creation no one can crack your password, and without a password, it is impossible to get access to your account it may be your social media account or electronic account.
