1. Have a password like yourself

Avoid giving a simple and easy-to-use password for one to three for five seconds or your name and date of birth. Set your own password so no one can guess.

2. Use Password Manager

Password manager can play an effective role in password protection. Use this app to use on all types of devices, computers and mobile phones, do not have to type the password repeatedly. It is also easy to help but it is impossible to guess others, to set such a password. Not only that, at the end of time, it will remind you to change the password.

3. Do not forget / show password to anyone

No matter how close the person is, no one should ever say or show a password without a mistake. If the relationship is good today, it may be a threat to you for any reason, or at any time, in the disorder of that person.

4. Change the password for a fixed time period

The best way to stay safe online is to change the password in a timely manner. Keep in mind that the new password should not coincide with the previous one or the sequence (eg: the previous password was a jackpot, so do not let the jackpot2 do that).

5. Password must be at least eight characters

The size of the password security is one of the most risk factors. Set as big as possible (at least eight characters).

6. The password will be in the letters, numbers and symbols

There should be a combination of colors, numbers, and symbols for a standard password. Break the letters that are not in the dictionary, in upper and lowercase letters, and mark them with numbers and symbols so that no one can guess in any way. Never write and save passwords separately.

7. Use of tof

The latest technology for password protection is TFA. Now most sites support toofa-to-factor authentication - after using the password for an ID to use it, there will be an instant code for custom mobile or app. This code can only be re-used as a password only. Nobody can hack your password without knowing it.
