The key to having optimal online security is to ensure that all your passwords are unique and complex.<br />

It’s easy to base your passwords on something that is of personal significance to you such as your<br />

birthday or the name of a loved one, but this makes passwords easy to guess and is a hacker’s dream.<br />

Using a password generator to create complex passwords that cannot be guessed with ease is a simple<br />

and quick way to strengthen the security of your online accounts. But, to take the security of your<br />

passwords to the next level, you can store them in a fortified password vault cocooned in encryption.<br />

There’s a wide range of different password managers that can facilitate the secure storage of passwords<br />

whilst also offering the convenience of auto-filling credentials, making logging into sites as seamless as<br />

biometric authentication.<br />

You should also ensure that you never write down your passwords, save them in spreadsheets, or share<br />

them over text or email. Hackers can easily exploit these unsecure methods. Changing passwords<br />

frequently also makes your accounts more secure and helps to keep hackers at bay.<br />

Although biometric authentication doesn’t appear to be replacing passwords in the near future, perhaps<br />

the best authentication method is a hybrid one in which passwords and biometrics co-exist to deliver a<br />

comprehensive security solution.<br />
