Understanding Password Strength
Weak Passwords
Passwords with fewer than 8 characters or limited character variety are considered weak. They can be cracked quickly using brute force or dictionary attacks.
Medium Passwords
Passwords with 8-11 characters and moderate character variety offer decent protection but may still be vulnerable to determined attackers.
Strong Passwords
Passwords with 12+ characters using all character types (uppercase, lowercase, numbers, symbols) are extremely difficult to crack and provide excellent security.
Common Password Mistakes to Avoid
- ❌ Using "password", "123456", or other common passwords

- ❌ Using personal information (name, birthday, pet name)
- ❌ Reusing the same password across multiple sites
- ❌ Sharing passwords via email or text message
- ❌ Writing passwords on sticky notes
- ❌ Using simple substitutions (e.g., "P@ssw0rd")
