Keeping your password secure

This article will help you to keep your password as secure as possible, difficult for anyone to guess

I would be telling you all how to keep your password secure enough and not be easily guessed by people. What you think as your password for your email account is the name of your girlfriend or a boyfriend, your hobby, the name of your best friend, your birthplace, your nature of work, your academic qualification, your pet's name, your mothers maiden name, and so on... All these passwords can be easily guessed by anyone. I DO AGREE THAT SUCH PASSWORDS ARE EASY TO REMEMBER but still they need to be secure enough. This is a small trick what you can do:- no matter what your password, keep the Shift key on your keyboard pressed while you enter the password and put in the starting digits of your date of birth or last four digits of your credit card or your mothers date of birth. Let me give you an example. Your password is your GirlFriends name that is Pooja (the most common girl's name in India). So your password becomes pooja, you simply make it to ilovepooja and put in her date of birth i.e., 14th February 1985. Then the password becomes as follows after pressing the Shift key on the Keyboard:- ILOVEPOOJA!$)@ you can always mix and match the names and the numbers. You wont be able to see the numbers because the Shift key is pressed so the symbols make the password more complex. Hope this piece of information proves helpful to you all.
