Lastpass: Test If Your Passwords Are Strong Enough

So your encryption is only as good as your password.

That’s why you need to make sure we use strong passwords, which contain different character types, like
uppercase and lowercase letters and numbers, and are more than 15 characters long.

There are even several ways you can test if your passwords are strong enough.

Also, you’ll need to set passwords which are not easy to remember or guess, and which aren’t used for more than
one online account.

It may sound like a hassle and you’re probably asking yourself:

But how exactly am I supposed to do this, when I have so many online accounts?

For most users, the “solution” is to simply use the same credentials. But this an incredibly poor choice.

As we mentioned, if a malicious hacker discovers the password you use for one online account, he’ll easily be
able to use the same credentials to access all the other accounts where you reused that password. So NEVER,
EVER reuse your passwords!
 

1. LastPass

To protect your passwords and increase your online safety, we recommend a password manager
like LastPass. Using a password manager means you’ll only need to remember one password, the one you use to
access LastPass.

LastPass provides extensions for the main web browsers, like Mozilla Firefox and Google Chrome, so it’s easy to
use.
