. Avoid including your name, birthdate, pets, or common words in your password: make it difficult to guess.  A strong password will be at least 10 characters in length, but the more the better. The longer (more characters) your password is, the more time it will take the hacker to crack it. A strong password should contain at least one of each of the following characters: lower-case letters, upper-case letters, numbers, and special characters. Ensure that you create a different password for every web service/website you use.  It’s not enough to do the same password with different numbers (e.g., password1, password2 …). If you’re feeling uncreative and have difficulty thinking up new passwords, use an online password generator — just make sure it’s from a trustworthy source. As you create more strong and unique passwords, it will likely be difficult to remember them all. There are many good password managers available that will encrypt and safely store your passwords.  You might even have a password manager built into your operating system — for example, Mac users have the keychain password manager available to them for free. If you don’t want to use a password manager, use a passphrase, for example: “I like big butts and I cannot lie!” might become iLbBaIcL! once every six months. This goes for all of your passwords — not just your Facebook one. If you find it difficult to remember to do this, set a reminder on your calendar. In fact, don’t share any of your passwords with anyone! When the “remember password” prompt comes up and you are not at your own computer, click on the “not now” button. On your computer, it is recommended that you set a master password for your browser, as having a master password will prompt anyone trying to see your passwords to enter another password (one created by you) just to show the passwords. Make sure that your master password is different from your other passwords and that it is a strong password. Whether your browser automatically saves your passwords in a master password-protected file will depend on your operating system and your browser. You can ensure that a master password is in effect by checking your browser preferences. If you are using a computer that you don’t know or trust, avoid doing anything that requires you to enter your password. Hackers commonly use key loggers on computer systems that record everything you type, including passwords. If it’s not possible for you to avoid typing a password into a computer you don’t trust, then change your password as soon as you can once you’re back at your own computer.
