What is Password?

A password is a secret string of characters that acts like a key to your digital accounts and devices. It verifies your identity and restricts access to unauthorized users. Just like a key to a lock, the right password grants you access, while the wrong one keeps you out.

      • Secrecy: The most important aspect of a password is that it should be kept confidential. No one else should know your passwords.

      • Complexity: Strong passwords are a mix of upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. They should avoid dictionary words, personal information, and simple patterns.

      • Uniqueness: Ideally, you should have a unique password for every single account you use. This makes it harder for hackers to gain access to multiple accounts if they crack one password.
