Passwords...

The password itself doesn't need an explanation, as you already know what it is.

The real question is: do you have a secure enough password?

Generally speaking, if your password contains any ordinary word, especially by
itself - it probably isn't AS secure as it could be.

That's not to say that your password isn't secure right now, it very well may be.

But if it's simply a word like "animal" or even "password" (you'd be surprised!)

then you're really at huge risk.

Even adding a number to your password, like "animal22" or "password123" isn't
safe anymore. Password crackers (software that cycles through passwords at a

fast pace) can run through different combinations with ease in just a short period

of time. If somebody truly wanted to get into your account, they could even
quickly run through weird variations like "ani2mal2" or "1pass2word3" with a little

bit of ambition (towards breaking into your account).

Enough talk about weak passwords, let's cover how you can improve your current
password or even generate a new password.

In most cases, passwords are case sensitive. You can use this to your advantage

in a lot of ways.
