The Power of a Strong Password (CS001)


Description
How many times have you opened a new app and typed the same password you’ve had since forever? And if it doesn’t accept it, you say, “Ok, I’ll add a 1 on the end. A capital letter? Fine. Now it wants to recommend a password too? How on earth will I remember that nonsense! I’ll have to get it tattooed on my arm.”

This rigmarole may seem like someone’s testing your limits, but password protection isn’t there to annoy you – it’s there to protect your data and personal information.

In the workplace, it’s not just your data and personal information you need to worry about. It’s your customers’ too. While having the same password for everything seems convenient, a weak password can be your biggest downfall.

By the end of this course, you’ll be able to:

• Understand the downfalls of a weak password
