The Importance of Strong Passwords

30 May 2026โ€ข~4 min read

Weak passwords are easy to guess with common wordlists and automated tools. The fix is simple: make them long, unique, and not based on personal info.

Why length wins

Attackers try billions of combinations per second. Each extra character multiplies the search space. A 16-character passphrase can take astronomically longer to break than 8 characters.

Practical tips

  • Use a passphrase (several unrelated words).
  • Avoid reuseโ€”each site should have a different password.
  • Turn on multi-factor authentication where possible.
