Have you thought about how hard it would be to guess your passwords? Especially the important ones!
I know it seems like a 21st century nightmare keeping on top of these, but it is important. I've created a video to give you a facility to test them out, and see how hard they are for a computer to 'guess' or hack.
I personally use a password manager for mine now, so I have impossibly complicated passwords to protect my accounts, without the hassle of remembering them, and trust me, I may have a good memory, but there is NO WAY, I could remember these passwords. There is also no little black book with them contained in.
So watch the video to learn how you can test them out, and if you would like to know more about a password manager, how it can make your accounts more secure, how they work and how they can take the hassle and worry away, comment below.
If you would like to get in touch and discuss them directly, you can speak to me or one of my team by calling 01903 259923.

3 年I read an article at the weekend about password managers and although I presume they have super-duper security, I still have a bit of a doubt about keeping them all in one place, doesn't that make password managers a target for hackers? https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2022/mar/19/not-using-password-manager-why-you-should-online-security

3 年You’d have trouble with mine. I’ve had it ever since I was 10 years old in 1978, when I still lived in my home town of Croydon. I remember it because of my first car which was a Ford Capri in my favourite colour blue, what’s more the car’s Reg no was the same as my mum’s maiden name SMith, what a coincidence! My passwords are as safe as houses! PS Christian, this was meant for humour not a challenge!!
