Avoid Using These Passwords At All Costs

“Password” (who does that?!) 

However of a great idea might seem to you, don’t ever write “password” as your password. Also, don’t use “password” in combination with other letters or easy-to-guess numbers(like the numbers from 1 to 10 and the word “password”), as it can be deciphered easily by a hacker.

Actually, this one’s so easy to guess, you won’t even need a hacker to crack your account! If you have trouble remembering a stronger password, you can always write it down somewhere on a piece of paper and put it in your wallet. This way, you will be able to enter your accounts and still be safe.

    This was very good info. It drives me crazy when a co. Deny a password & I have to start over! I use a Rolodex for passwords. Now I am having trouble finding new cards!
