Password manager FTW. Keepass is very good and it's free too.
Also choose passwords that are long but memorable rather than overly complex. Three words that aren't associated plus an optional number and/or special character works well.

As much as I'd encourage people to have suitably long, secure passwords with a combination of upper case letters, lower case letters, numbers and symbols or special characters. For things that aren't important I just 'password' as my password and I haven't had any problems.
Passwords don't get hacked, they get harvested when people are careless with them or when websites have data breaches. You avoid those problems from happening by being careful what websites you enter your login details to and by not reusing (important) passwords.
Keeping your password secure is down to you as you can have a 50 character password that's never going to be brute forced but if you use the same password everywhere and are generally careless with it then you might as well just use 'password' as your password.
Use two factor authentication for everything that offers it. |

It's bad when you work in a secure environment you can't use third party managers like password manager or things like that (as security risk supposedly)
It's best to write all 300 passwords that keep changing down somewhere safe........oh no wait.....not supposed to do that

So how can you be absolutely sure that password manager apps aren't sending your passwords somewhere? ____________________ Current bike: Honda ST1100 |

Old Thread Alert!
