GUIDELINES TO BE FOLLOWED INORDER TO FRAME ‘STRONG ANSWERS’:
Will you leave the doors and windows of your house open all the time? Obviously no! On the other hand, you will take extra care to get your home secured. Passwords - the doorstep to computers - deserve the same sense of security.
Pay attention to the following to keep your password safe and secure.
- Never reveal your password to others - not even to your friends.
- Never write your password down. You may not be the only one referencing it!
The Do's and Don'ts of creating a strong password:
Do's
- Follow all the password policies set by your administrator.
- Let your password be a mix of upper and lower case letters.
- Let your password be a proper mix of alphabet and numerals, and special characters.
Don'ts
- Don't use keyboard patterns, such as asdf, qwerty, 12345..., as passwords.
- Don't re-use your previous passwords.
- Don't use duplicate characters, for example, dddd2222.
