World Password Day 5/6/2021

Written by Epoch Team | 06 May, 2021

Today is World Password Day! The first Thursday in May is recognized as World Password Day, a day to promote safe password-usage.

The old-school tip would just be to update your password every 60-90 days. 

Here are a few quick up-to-date password tips for you today:

  • Enable multi-factor authentication whenever possible.
  • Use complex passwords that do not include common dictionary words, pet names, family names, sports teams, etc.
  • Do not use the same log-in credentials across different sites, keep each password unique.
  • Don’t use special characters, like “&, @, %, #, etc.”

Bottom-line, you should have a password policy for your organization!
