Setting Secure Passwords That Are Easy On You Too

This was sent out to our email subscribers last week but due to an incident that very same week, I feel compelled to post it here for your benefit.

You know how you’re encouraged to create secure passwords and you end up with a 5ea11y h@rd 0n3? Yeah… like you’re going to remember that. I know all about Roboform, LastPass and 1Password. Can’t live without Roboform.

The down side? I am often *severely* crippled when I don’t have access to these tools. It’s happened a few times. Now, I’ve changed my method. Thanks to a comic of all things, but this is not a joke. It IS secure and easy for humans. Ready?

Simply string together a few random words, separate them by a space or some kind of symbol like % ^ or @ – anything. That’s it! For a clearer picture, check out xkcd.

Do I still use RoboForm? Absolutely because there’s just too many. For the common stuff this is the method I’m using. Hope you found it helpful. It sure was for me
