How to remember all your passwords A We all know the basic rules for choosing good passwords and keeping them secret. Rule number one: use numbers, symbols and a good mix of letters - upper case (A. 8, C) and lower case (a, b, c). Rule number two: use a different password for each of the device you use or for each website you visit. Rule number three: change your passwords regularly. Rule number four: never write your passwords down. These rules sound easy to follow, right? B Well, not really. The rules say that a secure password should look something like this: [email protected]% JpOeJ-47dink. Do you think you can remember that? Don't forget you should have several different ones, you shouldn't write them down AND you have to change them every few weeks. Does this sound like an impossible task? Well, for most people, it is. So what do most of us do? C Recently, researchers had a chance to analyze secret information about passwords. They found that many of us totally ignore the experts' advice and choose simple, easy to remember and extremely insecure passwords. Data shows that one out of every ten people uses 1234 as the pin number for their bank cards and that the passwords welcome, 123456, ninja and, of course, password are some of the most popular choices. Even governments choose terrible passwords. It seems hard to believe, but in the 1980s, the American government actually used the 'secret code' 00000000 to unlock its nuclear missiles.
