Identity theft and corporate security breaches is common nowadays. It’s time for us, users, treat passwords with a level of seriousness. Most computers users see passwords as annoying and just a nuisance and so they create easy to remember codes. Which unfortunately for us, is a big, big mistake. Hackers are plain and simple, geniuses. They can work around anything that you leave behind. Protect yourself by creating strong passwords. When i say strong, i mean… really strong. It must be something that a hacker can not simply work around with, and manipulate.

Using alphanumeric is an effective way. Meaning, you use not only letters in the alphabet, but numbers. This increases the possible password combination by millions.
The longer the password, the harder it is for programs to hack your account.
Do not use personal data like your birthday, wedding anniversary, or anything like that because chances are, it can be easily guessed by the hacker. And keep the password to yourself.

I am hoping this simple steps help you out in completely securing yourself from the evil “monsters”.
