Coming Soon đ At the beginning of April, youâll be
introduced to a brand-new GoComics! See more information here. Subscribers, check your
email for more details.
âAfter a cybersecurity audit mistakenly reset everyoneâs password, a high school changed every studentâs password to âCh@ngeme!â giving every student the chance to hack into any other studentâs account, according to emails obtained by TechCrunch.â
I write down all my passwords on paper, so I donât forget them. Whoa, donât go ballistic on me, I have a trick. I write clues to what the password is, making the clues look like a password!
(All I have to do is remember what the heck the clues are!) âș
Been on the âNet since 1995, never hacked. Strong passwords but also attention to details. Donât click on links in emails unless you are 1000% convinced they are actually from your company, not someone spoofing it. If you have business from a company, go directly to their website, donât go there from an email link. VPN. Anti-virus protection.
I have found in creating a password a specific pattern works well, using gocomics as an example. 0!go2718xxxx. so all the passwords begin with 0! and then a portion of the site Iâm logging into and the last eight another random created pattern that is somehow related to the site.
Me personally just go with the password suggestions then save it in password manager. A lot easier than keeping a list of passwords someone could otherwise steal
The guy who came up with this type of system of generating passwords has said that this is no better than using an easily remembered one. He apologized to everyone who followed his advice.
I have a bag of letters numbers and symbols that I use to create passwords. Just grab a handful and write them down as you lay them down. I sometimes need to double or triple dip to find a symbol

And then write it down somewhere when you forget it.

Get your password manager to generate it, thatâs what theyâre for. I favour KeePass myself.

All you need is an uncommon phrase with five or six words totally 20+ characters. The length is the most important part.

Itâs all great until the Chinese point the full might of their Quantum computers at us. Or Google. Theyâre making them, too.
Then itâs the backstory of Ghost in the Shell.

I make up phrases or a related sentence and use the first letter of each word, putting the Cap, numb3r or punctuation! as needed.
