We live in a world of Digital Darkness. A Bright Flash Ray of Internet is making us Blind. One who does not know about Facebook and Orkut is a Fool, however one who put his personal and professional information on these so called Social Vitamins of Digital World is a Super Fool, giving rights to others to enter his resources and steal everything away.
One should follow a Password Policy in order to make our Personal and Professional resources secure.
1: Passphrase should be of atleast 8 length
2: One should include Characters(A-Z), Numbers(0-9) and Special Characters(! @ # $ % etc) in the Passphrase
3: Don’t be lazy to make your Web Browsers remember your password. Put your credentials manually everytime you login to your profiles.
4: Just try to remember the Account Security Question you were asked to configure at the time of Signing Up for the Account, I am sure you don’t. Always keep a track of it. Keep on checking it.
5: Keep changing your password on a Weekly or Monthly basis.
6: Do your Spouse or Best Friend know your password. I think Yes. Never share your Account Credentials with anyone, not even with your dearest one.
7: In a hurry, just got an important Email. Avoid using other’s computer to check your Emails. There might be software installed in the computer, keeping an eye on your personal information.
More than 50% of the Email IDs are already Hacked and Account holders do not know anything about it. Make sure yours in not one of them.
