How to choose secure passwords

Make your passwords memorable, so that you don’t have to write them down or store them in a file on your computer (remember, this file could be stolen by cybercriminals).
Don’t use real words that a hacker or cybercriminal can find in a dictionary.
Use a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and non-alphanumeric characters such as punctuation marks (although the latter are not always allowed).
Don’t recycle passwords, e.g. don’t use 'password1', 'password2', 'password3', etc. for different accounts.
If possible, use a passphrase, rather than a single word.
Don’t use the same password for multiple accounts. If a cybercriminal finds the password to one account, they can use to access other accounts.
