Pick a New Password and Make it Easy to recall

I suggest that you change your email password frequently so pick a new password and today, make it easy to recall.

Start by creating a phrase that you can remember. “I like chocolate.” Use the spaces if your email program allows it. This creates a password that a machine cannot decipher in the time allotted by most attacks.

If you find you have to use capitalizations, do that for the middle or last word. “i like Chocolate.”

If you feel safer with a symbol, use it randomly in the phrase. “I like-chocolate.” Even the use of a period or dash makes this phrase safe in the world of malware hacking.

  1. Change your password after using your computer in an airport
  2. Change your password if you begin to get lots of SPAM
  3.  Change your password if you have forgotten it.
  4. Change your Email password and make it different than the others you use.
