Updating and Selecting Secure Passwords

Why Passwords Passwords are required to keep accounts and info limited to only those that should have access; however, weak (bad) passwords can compromise this by making the accounts easier to access via brute force cracking or using rainbow tables, that of course being undesirable.

What Makes a Good Password A good password should be: complex, long, and easy to remember.

Complex (Character Classes) Letters Numbers Symbols Emojis 🤷‍♂️ Long 10+ letters long Easy to remember So you can type it in more naturally and so you don't resort to poor practices like writing it on a sticky note.
