Making Strong Passwords (continued)

Now if you have a lot of different passwords for all of your accounts, you may be wondering how to remember and keep track of all of them without giving them away too easily- this is where a password-protected file comes into play.

You can utilize encryption software in order to encrypt all of your passwords and store them in a safe file. In order to gain access to that file, you need to input a password of course. This would allow you to store your passwords in a safe place, and even put descriptions so that you know what site each password is for.

Browsers also have built-in password manager tools that generate strong passwords that you do not have to remember- they will be encrypted within your system.

We can see that passwords are vital to our online safety and how they can be exploited if they are not created properly. We hope this lesson gave you some helpful tips to create passwords.
