The MakeUseOf Password Management Guide
Don’t feel overwhelmed by passwords, or simply use the same one on every site just so you’ll remember them. Instead design your own password management strategy. MakeUseOf’s Password Management Guide, from author Mohammed Al-Marhoon, outlines tips and tricks you need to know to stay both secure and sane.
We are all overwhelmed by passwords. Everyone has an account for Google, Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, Outlook/Hotmail, Dropbox… the list goes on. Unfortunately, most of us use either one password or a group of passwords for all of our major accounts. That's dangerous.
It doesn't matter if the individual password is unique, or if it's a long mix of numbers and letters; if you only use one password it won't matter. When one account is compromised, all of your accounts will likely follow.
This guide aims to educate you about the importance of proper passwords without overwhelming you. Check it out today and lock down your files properly.
This manual will show you how to:
- Avoid common password mistakes.
- Design a strong password by combining tricks offered by Google, Microsoft, Mozilla and more.
- Test your password’s strength, online and off.
- Design high-quality passwords you’ll actually be able to memorize.
- Store your passwords securely, online or off.
