The DNSC warns that passwords are the first line of defense against unauthorized access in today's digital landscape. A compromised password can provide access to sensitive data and personal accounts. Experts emphasize the importance of each user in strengthening collective security, as the vulnerability of one user can affect others.
Among the recommendations from the DNSC are creating complex passwords, with at least 12 characters, that include uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols, avoiding password reuse for multiple accounts, and enabling two-factor authentication (2FA) wherever possible. Additionally, using a password manager is suggested to keep credentials secure. A strong password contributes to a safer digital network for all users.
