Passwords and How to Make Them to make sure that your passwords can not be easily
guessed or cracked if your laptop falls into the wrong hands. An excellent program
for helping to secure and manage your passwords is Password Vault, which works for
both Windows and Mac OS X.
Phishing and scams occur often, by scammers who try to steal your personal
information for fraud or identity theft. There are also websites that are made to
look exactly like your favorite social networking site to steal your password. Once
they have the password, they are able use it to send out spam, and even viruses,

In order to be safer online it is essential to keep changing your passwords at a
given interval of time especially during the holiday season. You need to change the
passwords of your banking services, e-mail accounts and online shopping services
that are similar to Amazon. Another thing to keep in mind is choosing a password
that does not includes phrases or words.
A password can be a composition of random words that can be separated by comas or
spaces. However, you need to keep in mind that only websites like Microsoft
accounts accept spaces within passwords including Amazon and Google. To be on the

characters long — and really you want 15 characters to be truly secure.
Use a BIOS Password: Protecting your laptop with an operating system login and
password is a good idea, but there are ways to circumvent that protection and gain
access to the data still. For better protection, you should enable password
protection at the BIOS level so that the laptop can not even be turned on without
the correct password. Implement Remote Data Protection: Another step you can take
to make sure your data does not fall into the wrong hands is to look into products
that will allow you to remotely destroy or erase the data on your laptop if it is
lost or stolen.
This has been accomplished by using encryption and/or a salted hash with iteration
to protect the confidentiality of passwords in configuration files. Change
passwords/keys immediately if the network device configuration file is transmitted
in the clear (or is otherwise exposed) while containing non-encrypted
passwords/keys. Secure protocols will be used when transmitting network device
configuration files.
