How to Improve

Best Practices

Password Security Essentials

Follow these guidelines to keep your accounts safe from compromise.

Use a Password Manager

Tools like Bitwarden, 1Password, LastPass, or your browser's built-in password manager generate and store unique passwords for every site.

Enable Two-Factor Authentication

MFA/2FA adds a second layer — even if your password is compromised, attackers still cannot access your account without the second factor.

Never Reuse Passwords

If one service is breached, attackers will try that password on every other site. Each account must have its own unique password.

Rotate Regularly

Change passwords every 60–90 days, especially for critical systems. Immediately rotate any password you suspect may have been exposed.

Avoid Dictionary Words

Dictionary attacks try millions of real words instantly. Use random combinations or passphrases of 4+ unrelated words instead.

Let Your Browser Help

Chrome, Edge, and Safari can suggest strong passwords and flag compromised ones. Accept their suggestions — they're stronger than anything you'd invent.
