Do you use weak passwords?
This is a huge problem in the internet world and has had a lot of press coverage recently. A survey conducted by the National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) found that many internet users did not know the best ways to protect themselves from cybercrime, with 42 per cent expecting to lose money to online fraud. Businesses with websites are also being affected with hackers gaining access to their websites causing downtime on their sites. Using easily guessed passwords across multiple accounts is a major gap in the online security habits of British people. Take a look at this article which The Independent released over the weekend with some very interesting facts. Take a look! https://www.independent.co.uk/life-style/gadgets-and-tech/most-hacked-worst-passwords-online-security-cyber-a8879101.html
Having a weak password means that hackers can easily access your information, emails and if you have your own website, they can get in there too! This can be very damaging personally and professionally so have a re-think about what passwords you choose.
Is this something you need to take a look at and change?
