What are tips for creating a strong password?

*. User upper and lower case letters
2. Insert a number or two
*. Use additonal characters that aren't numbers or letters. For example, p@ssword (though don't use THAT as your password -- it's too common)
4. Use words or a short phrase that you can remember.
5. DON'T use the same password at multiple websites, because sooner or later, one of those sites will get hacked

To help with all of the above, use a good password manager. Because of #5, I _personally_ don't like online password managers. Google for "password manager" and you'll find many that are recommended. Then make sure you keep your password file safe, AND MAKE A BACKUP of it occasionally!

In my opinion you should choose alphanumeric numbers for your password & choose about 6 characters.

Make sure it is not related to your personal information such as

First Name
Last Name
Birthday
Address
Social Security Number

Make your password a combination of lower and upper case letters, symbols, and number.

:cool:

A strong password contains a mixture of six or more uppercase and lowercase letters, plus punctuation and numbers.

Upper and lower case letters could make your password strength medium. When you also put a Number on it, thats the time it would be strong. But use passwords that would be easy for you to remember.
