Digital Smarts - All Passwords Matter
You are here
Kim Komando of USA Today mentions in her column Five password mistakes you should avoid a joke going around the internet about changing your password to ‘incorrect’ so whenever you can’t remember it, you will get a return message saying, 'Your password is incorrect.' That might sound like a brilliant plan on some level, but that password of yours is often the only thing standing between a snoop and your information or money. Komando goes on to discuss common password mistakes, including making passwords too short or too simple, writing the password down on paper, and never changing it. She suggests reviewing the ones you haven’t changed in years and doing something about them following all the rules of creating a viable password.
