Title: Choose strong password Author: Sandro Tosi Last modified: 2007-09-02 There are many ways and advices to choose a strong password, here are some: o always use at least a number; o use at least a symbol character, as '.' or '_'; o mix lower and upper case letters; o the longer the password the more time to break it; o do not use simple words, as 'home' or your name, nickname; o do not use dates related to your or your family (birth/marriage date, etc); o in general, do not use any personal information when selecting password: pets names, dates, names or their combinations; o use the strongest password you can remember; o you can use the initial character of a song chorus/title, or from a famous sentence, plus some numbers; (this is a little bit controversial; some say you can use, some say not.); o do not use common works referrable to your interests, uses or hobbies; o can use some "support" tools, like pwgen or apg;
