There are a number of recommended password best practices. Choose long passwords. Use complex non-dictionary strings of numbers, symbols, and characters, which increase the effort required to crack your passwords. Use a different password for each online account to prevent a breach on one site from affecting all of your accounts.

Everyone needs to practice good password security, just like you need to lock your front door when you're not home. Whether you're a writer, marketer, accountant, lawyer, computer programmer, or mortgage broker, you need solid password protection.
In general, a strong password contains a mix of upper and lower case letters, numbers and special characters. Some accounts have stricter password requirements than others, so the longer and more complex your password is, the better. For example, Fido77 is a weak password, whereas MM4P.Iwb@! is a strong password. Hackers know that when most people try to create strong passwords, they usually start with uppercase letters, use lowercase letters in the middle, and end with special characters or numbers.
Try to vary things up and avoid this formula. If you use the same weak password for multiple accounts, it won't take long for a hacker to crack your password and access your personal information. That's why it's important to use a different, strong password for each account.
Also avoid dictionary words and words and numbers that are easily associated with you, such as your pet's name and your birthday.
To manage all of your passwords, you'll have to rely on your memory or a mountain of Post-It notes. Currently, the recommended way is to use a password manager. You have a lot of important information to protect, so you owe it to yourself (and your clients) to use a password that's extremely difficult to crack.
A password manager is an application that encrypts and securely stores your passwords. You can access it from both your computer and your smartphone.
Once you set up your password manager, it will automatically detect when you are on a website that requires authentication and will automatically fill in the password field on login screens for you. In fact, most password managers also include password generators that will create long, extremely complex passwords on demand.
So if you think that /"p@ssword1/" or /"Daisy1986/" is enough to stop a hacker, you are wrong. Be smart about your password security, get a password vault and never use identical or even similar passwords for different web services or on your computer.
