Ooo! I Know Your Password

Our teachers decided to have a few refreshers about being Cybersmart. I've chosen to research and write about smart and protective passwords.

To be able to make a protective password that no one will crack, you will need to figure out what the most common passwords are. This includes names, birth dates, pet names, family and phone numbers. You may be wondering why these aren't such good passcodes. The reason being that children in school or adults in work may know some of your personal details. 

Have you heard about the internet sensation Momo? Well, the people behind Momo are extremely skilled hackers. They steal people's information and use it against them to cause self harm or worse. It is really important to make sure your password is something you can remember and one that is impossible to crack, even by very skilled hackers.
