    Each year on the first Thursday in May, World Password Day promotes better password habits. Passwords are critical gatekeepers to our digital identities, allowing us to access online shopping, dating, banking, social media, private work, and life communications.

    In a cyber world, secure passwords are important. Other than keeping your information offline, long, unique and complex passwords protect your valuable information best. Another tactic is changing your passwords every few months or any time you think your accounts have been compromised.

    I should really change mine more regularly, but I only really change them when I have to reset one because I can't remember it :oops:

  2. My password is “incorrect”. That way, if I forget it, I get a reminder :thumbsup:

    Ironically, I've just been up to IT to reset my password as I forgot what I changed it to last week :oops:

    The Bain of my life at work .. they really are , I have so many logins to various systems and portals it’s unreal..
    What really blows my cork gasket is when you do a password reminder and you’ve used the new one or something similar to it in the last 12 months ..

    I have a spreadsheet now - not password protected :rolleyes:

    thank the lord for finger print recognition
