The simple steps to a secure password
Length: Decrypting a password (set) with 15 characters takes months even with today's technology
A special character and a number increase the possibilities significantly (instead of 26 letters, there can now be 26 letters and 9 numbers and dozens of special characters)
Integrate the service: If you change the passwords for each service, the risk of data thieves stealing the passwords of one service and thus gaining access to various other providers is significantly lower. So simply add the name of the provider to the password, like this: "MyMotherlikesCakes&Google1", "MyMotherlikesCakes&Facebook1"

A little tip from my own belgium telegram screening experience: If you are not familiar with the special features behind your keys, you might be better off not using special characters such as ä, ü, ö or ß. The keyboard also offers various other options, but if you are sitting in front of an English keyboard abroad and are in a hurry, you will appreciate not having to spend a long time looking for the umlauts.


Providers are also obliged to protect their customers' data to the best of their knowledge. This means, for example, that they only allow a certain number of log-in attempts to protect against so-called brute force attacks. Thieves try thousands of word and letter combinations per second to crack a password. If your password is a term in the dictionary, you can be sure that it can be cracked in no time if the provider does not prevent this.

Likewise, there are still providers that store passwords in plain text, which immediately gives thieves the opportunity to try them out on all other email accounts, social media services, etc. Of course, both of these are not the case with Central Station CRM.
