Easy create “Strong Password” not “Long Password”

“Strong Password” not “Long Password”

It is important to use different types of characters when choosing a password. This can be done in various ways:

• Varying capitalisation, such as: 'My naME is Not MR. MarSter'

• Alternating numbers and letters, such as: 'a11 w0Rk 4nD N0 p14Y'

• Incorporating certain symbols, such as: 'c@t(heR1nthery3'

• Using multiple languages, such as: 'Let Them Eat 1e gateaU au ch()colaT

“Strong Password” not “Long Password”

• Passwords can also take advantage of more traditional mnemonic devices, such as the use of acronyms. This allows long phrases to be turned into complex, seemingly-random words:

• 'To be or not to be? That is the question' becomes '2Bon2B?TitQ’

• 'We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal' becomes 'WhtT2bs-e:taMac=’

• 'Are you happy today?' becomes 'rU:-)2d@y?'

“Strong Password” not “Long Password”

• A little effort to make the password more complex goes a very long way. Increasing the length of a password even just by a few characters, or by adding numbers or special characters, makes it much more difficult to crack. For demonstrative purposes, the table below shows how much longer it may take a hacker to break a list of progressively more complex passwords by trying different combinations of the password one after another.
