This topic of writing is kind of interesting for me and you who are reading. I am working with data so SQL Injection attacks always come first in my mind. For people who don’t belong to IT, I just want to say it's a common hackable string that is used instead of your password to log into your system or account.
Remember when you set your first password? What it contains. I have answers for that May be your birth year, your crush’s name, your last name, your son’s name, your daughter’s name, your wife’s name, your girlfriend's name, your dad’s name, your mom’s name, your god’s name, sequence number or something. Most passwords contain characters “a”, “e”, “i”, “o” or “u”. Don’t believe me then please check it out.
It is easy to break and easy to identify. But now as time passes passwords become a combination of numbers and characters but the pattern is still the same, the only difference is that we are using the same strings which I mentioned above but may be in combination.
Again I am saying it is easy to hack. Your password is not growing up. I can also tell so many people around the globe use 1234 or 9876 or 6789 or 4321 for their ATM Pin number or other sequence numbers.
If you are growing up with technology, your password should be grown up too. Don’t use these words. Don’t use any year or any name or any sequence in your password.
Don’t use the same password for multiple accounts either email or financial. Make your passwords complicated not big in length. Use some special characters. Don't use alphabet sequence too like abc or ABC in the password.
Password generator tools are also available from Google, Norton, and some other companies. You can use them but also use some other strings in addition to those autogenerated passwords. You can also generate yours but it must include lowercase, and uppercase alphabets, numbers, and special characters together and the length must be higher maybe 12 characters or longer.
