Paul Stenhouse: Password security 101
Manage episode 456707715 series 2098284
Paul Stenhouse joins the show to talk password security 101.
Use a password manager: A password manager can generate, store, and fill in your passwords for you. This can help you create and remember strong, unique passwords for each account.
Use strong passwords: Passwords should be at least 12 characters long and include symbols, numbers and a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters. Avoid dictionary words, personal data, sequential numbers, repeated numbers, and keyboard patterns.
Tip: try a "pass phrase" of multiple words or numbers strung together"
Use different passwords for different accounts: Using the same password for multiple accounts makes your data more vulnerable. If a hacker guesses your password for one account, they can try it on all of your accounts.
Use multi-factor authentication: It's annoying, but multi-factor authentication adds layers of protection so even if someone has your password, they still need that second factor of authentication too.
Bonus points.. try adding a Pass Key. It's like an advanced password that is super long, and is uniquely tied to the website/app that you created it with. So if you ever ended up on a look-a-like fake website, your credentials wouldn't even be sent.
