A weak password is the most common reason accounts get hacked. The following rules noticeably improve security.
- Use at least 12 characters
- Set a separate password for each site
- Avoid guessable details such as your name or birth date
- Create a long “passphrase” made of words
- Use a password manager
- Turn on two-factor authentication
- Never send your password to anyone
Signing in with Google or Yandex is also a safe option: your password is not stored on the site.
