jabbath1987 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Here is a good method for making a strong password: Take a sentence you can easily and always remember: Let's take this as an example. Candy never goes to the kitchen. Now we take the first two letters of every word: CaNeGoToThKi We also need a number. Candy realm number is 60 so we get CaNeGoToThKi60 Last we replace some letters with similar looking special characters. So our final passwort will be: Ca#eG0T0ThK!6o 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's the Security Settings Encryption process that require the changes. It would be the same on Cam Caps if the Administrator ever wants to update the Websites Security Settings to a stronger encryption the system would send each and every member an e-Mail message advising them to change their passwords by a certain date when these Security Settings would be changed. If one works with a website or has a website knows this is straight forward stuff. For ones that just visit websites it may seem more out of place than normal for some.

The higher the security the less chance of being compromised. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
me0369 Posted May 16, 2021 Share Posted May 16, 2021 Just some stuff I use for passwords. First letter of each of your family members or friends then add the address number of somewhere you've lived in the past or a work place then add a special character or 2 like ? Also throw in a capitol letter on someone you'll remember. So it will look some thing like this abcD2222? that's how I do it. Also if you forget a password and you use chrome you can find them all under settings, manage passwords, unless that's changed recently. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever passwords you use now,easy or difficult ones, the browsers always remember them now but i always note them down in a little notebook anyway as a backup out of harms way. Makes me laugh all these so called password manager software's out there as if you are so worried about hackers etc etc you then go and trust them all to another piece of software that could get hacked as well 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
