Rock-solid passwords, without the headache
A good password isn't complicated: it's mostly long and unique.
The most common password is still a first name, a birth date or "qwerty." That's basically an open door. The secret isn't adding an exclamation mark, it's going long and different for every account.
The passphrase, your best friend
String together several unrelated words into a sentence only you remember. It's long, so it's strong, and easy to recall. Avoid famous quotes or song lyrics, they're too easy to guess.
A manager to remember it all
Can't memorize a unique password per site? A password manager does it for you and fills the fields automatically. You only have to remember one strong master password.
Never reuse the same password everywhere: if one site gets breached, all your accounts fall at once.
