This is what you should include in your password to make it uncrackable
- To create a truly secure password in today’s cybersecurity landscape, you need more than a mix of letters and numbers — you need length and complexity. New research from Specops shows that 98.5% of breached passwords are weak and could be cracked in minutes, even if they’re eight characters long with numbers and symbols. The key to resisting brute-force attacks is to use at least 15 characters and include two or more types of characters (letters, numbers, and symbols). Short passwords are easy targets for modern cracking tools, and reused passwords multiply risk across platforms. To protect your data and meet security standards, use a password manager to generate and store long, unique passwords for each account. Click here to read more.
