Why is password security important?

Passwords protect your device or accounts. They keep your information private and safe from others. Ideally they need to be easy for you to remember but hard for others to guess or break. If someone discovered your password they could gain access to sensitive information including your financial data. It is important that you do not share your password with anyone else.

 

A password needs to be a minimum of 12 characters long, a mixture of letters (both lowercase and capitals), numbers and a special character e.g. !%&.

and be nothing that contains a name, or has been used by you in the past.
