October is Cybersecurity Awareness Month, and the Express Blog has tips for leaders and employees to stay cyber safe this month and beyond.
Passwords are the keys to your online personal space. Just as you would take measures to prevent unauthorized access to your home, you should protect your passwords with the same level of vigilance.
While passwords might seem like a hassle, they are crucial for safeguarding your information. Here’s how to create strong passwords effectively:
- Length: Aim for at least 14 characters to make your password harder to crack.
- Uniqueness: Avoid reusing passwords across different accounts. Each account should have its own distinct password.
- Complexity: Incorporate a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Some sites even allow spaces, which can add an extra layer of security.
By following these guidelines, you can better protect your accounts and personal information.
