The importance of having a written list of all sites you have passwords on. Do you have a written list of all the sites you have passwords on?
If not you should it is very important that you be able to have access to that list and keep it updated with sites, so if you need to change passwords you can and you will know what sites you have passwords on, it is almost impossible to have a different password for each site you have you may have 100 sites or you may have thousands and I’m sure there will be a couple of the same passwords on those sites. Some sites policies require users to change passwords periodically, e.g. every 90 or 180 days which is a good thing in my opinion A great reminder to do keep the passwords different not as easy to be hacked. With a list of sites written down you will always be up to date on what sites you have passwords with and you can keep them up to date so you do not miss them. All of the good password cracking programs include foreign words, backwards words, etc. And the easiest way to steal a password is by asking for it, so it’s simpler to “never give it away”. I think this is very important a friend of mine Pierce suggested I write this post and I think it is a great idea with so many sites being compromised and hacked today we have to protect ourselves as much as possible and this will help The next time you are shopping pick up a Notebook to make your list. A lot of people use sites like Lastpass etc.. but I am not sure about those sites how do you feel? How safe are you giving your info to a company to make a password for you?
