How To Smartly Create Passwords
- Don't re-use passwords. One ultra-secure one won't be any good if someone finds it.
- While combining upper and lower case passwords with numbers to alter a memorable word - M4rsin$pace - is often advised, these are more easily cracked than you might think
- The best strategy advice is to create a memorable, PASSPHRASE sentence [don't use these samples]: I$wimatTHEbeach2016 | "I am a $erious Winner in 2017" is better than "My name is John", and use the first letter of each word with punctuation: "Iaa$Wi2017"
- Consider using a password manager such as 1Password, which generates and stores your secure passwords.
