It takes only one hacker about 12 seconds to reveal a simple password. Security expert warns that make it too easy for hackers - and to use the same password in multiple locations.
Many Internet users choose to use passwords that are too easy to break. Security expert Carsten Jørgensen from Devoteam Consulting says that it takes an hacker about 12 seconds to reveal a password consisting solely of small print.
People will typically use their pets, leisure interest as username or password, but it is a bad idea, the hacker knows that you do, says Carsten Jørgensen to the newspaper Date.
He recommends using a combination of capitalization and special characters and numbers - and that the password is not used in several places. -- If you use both large and small letters, numbers and special characters, it is difficult for an hacker to understand. But it is not smart to write "123" at the end of his password, for it is that so many who do, says security expert.
