Password Strengthening

• Length and complexity are the two major factors in determining the strength of a password
• A “passphrase” is a better way to make a long and complex password and keeping it easier to remember and type
• Create an easily rememberable phrase – such as a interesting mental image:
• “GreenGiraffesTurtleneckSweater”
• Add some numbers and symbols:
• “GreenGiraffes37TurtleneckSweater$”
• And you’ll have a password that current technology would take over a millennium to brute-force
