Tips for choosing more-secure passwords:
Create original passwords that contain a combination of letters, numbers, and even special characters (#, &, %) if allowed.
Use both capital and lowercase letters (if your password can be case sensitive).
Ensure that your passwords are at least eight characters.
Avoid using:
- Your Social Security number.
- Account numbers.
- Phone numbers or addresses.
- Birth dates or anniversaries.
- Obvious or common nicknames.
- Names of relatives or pets.
- Common words from the dictionary.
- Additional precautions:
- Use a unique password for each service or website.
- Choose a password you can easily remember, so you don't have to write it down.
- Change your passwords at least twice a year.
