Great Tips from Integrity Computer Consulting
Proper Passwords & Great Keyboard Shortcuts
From Your Friends at Integrity Computer Consulting and Repair
Password Best Practices
To help safeguard your card data and personal information on sites that require a login, we recommend:
- Make sure your password is secure even if the site you're logging into does not require it. We recommend using a combination of upper and lower case letters, with numbers AND special characters, and not using any recognizable words. For example, a password of "Ilovedogsalot" can be made more secure by changing all the vowels to look-alike numbers and special characters, breaking up the actual words into something more secure: !L0v3d0Gs@Lo+
- Use two-step authentication if it is available.
- Get into a habit of changing your password on a schedule (especially if it is a site that houses financial information or credit card numbers), even though it is a pain, we recommend changing passwords every 30-90 days.
- Do not use the same password for every site. Make each password different (even if it is off by one or two characters) and keep a record of it.
- Write your passwords down or consider using a reputable password keeper like LastPass (www.lastpass.com).
