Remember passwords easily with passphrases

Posted on: May 18, 2017 | By: Christina Bonds | Filed under: Info Security, Passwords

We already know the common best practices when it comes to passwords like creating a long password, using a unique password for each account, and changing passwords often.  But… how do we remember all of these long, unique, and changing passwords?  If you are not using a password manager like LastPass consider using passphrases to help with remembering these passwords.  The SANS Institute, a respected source for information security training has created an informative video about passphrases.

Watch this video from SANS to learn more about passphrases and how to protect them.
