Spent the day changing all my passwords. Because I’m a stickler for security, all my passwords follow these rules:
- 12 characters
- At least one Capital letter
- At least two numbers
- At least one special character
- Cannot be a word, combination of words
- Cannot be pronounceable
- Must be unique. Yes for every website
- Cannot be remembered (unless you have a photographic memory)
Here is an example: 23@CnBOfB*iF
Because these passwords are impossible for me to remember I use a password manager. How do you handle passwords?
