Some thoughts about passwords

  • The random password generated by our secure password generator is not and should not be stored by us. Therefore, we generate it locally on your phone or computer.
  • Not all passwords are created equal. For instance, short passwords that contain information personal to you should not be the basis for your password. In other words, birthdays, names, and other public information easily found on the internet. In conclusion, you should use a mix of special characters, numbers, and letters to help keep passwords secure.
  • So much of our lives is linked to accounts on the internet. Above all, we should keep these account secure. For instance, you should change passwords at a minimum of every 90 days. You can find information on changing passwords for popular online services here.
