Updated Rules for Passwords

16/9/2021

Picture

The recommendation for passwords creation have changed:
The National Institute of Standards and Technology (
NIST) recommends rather long passwords then complex ones.
As more characters as more time consuming it will be to crack it.
And it might be easier to remember
'HansHelgaComputer!!!) ' than
'FtCrlv6DyaSIPltTRAn2'.
Both are safe.
I recommend to check your passwords here: Password Check | Kaspersky
The checker tells you if the password is strong enough to survive a brute force attack
and if it is already  listed in a leaked password database.
Kasperski is a cybersecurity and anti-virus protector provider.

And where should you store your passwords?
I recommend
  1Password.
It is affordable, easy to handle and very safe.
