Here are 8 ways in which you can create a strong and unbreakable password-
1. Your password should be both uppercase and lowercase letters. eg – aBjsE7uG
2. Apart from this, both number and symbol should be used in the password. Like – AbjsE7uG61!@
3. You must use at least 8 characters. eg – aBjsE7uG
4. You should not use any common dictionary words. eg – itislocked or thisismypassword
5. Do not use memory keyboard paths like qwerty and asdfg
6. You should not use very common passwords such as 12345678 or abcdefg.
7. You should not use easy-to-detect passwords like – DOORBELL – DOOR8377.
8. Password should be kept a little longer, apart from this you should not use family, date of worth. Like – Ramesh@1967
To create a
strong and unbreakable password, you should take special care that you should not use dates like birthday, wedding anniversary in the password. Using such dates makes passwords more likely to be hacked. Apart from this, the names of your children or the names of your pets should be avoided in the password.
