The Characteristics Of A Safe Password

Quick Tip…

  • it cannot be found in a dictionary.
  • it contains special characters and numbers.
  • it contains a mix of upper and lower case letters.
  • it has a minimum length of 10 characters.
  • it cannot be guessed easily based on user information
    (birthdate, postal code, phone number etc.)

Create An Easy To Remember Base Password

You can use several techniques how to create a good password that you will not forget.

Here are some suggestions…

  • Randomly replace letters with numbers, e.g. flirt becomes fl1r7.
  • Pick a sentence, i.e. your pass-phrase, and reduce it to first letters of each word only,
    e.g. “Everything I Do I Do It For You” becomes EIDIDIFY.
  • Take a word and reverse spell it, e.g. neighborhood becomes doohrobhgien.

Try to find a combination that allows you to incorporate all characteristics.
