But, the question is – will you remember it when you need it the most?

2. Do not use consecutive letters on the keyboard for creating passwords. For example: Qwert123$ is a very secure password, but also very predictable.
3. Do not use the confidential services on other people’s computers. The reason is that they may have specialized programs that later can show your password, or because of your negligence you may have forgotten to sign out and people will have access to your data.

8. If you suspect that someone at your work know your password immediately contact responsible person for security of the computer system in the company.

9. If you have a break in the network computer on which the attacker changed the password that you know, it is best to unplug this computer from the network and then try to solve the problem.
