Internet Security

Internet security is as important as homeland security, and even home security.  Sometimes those terms are virtually interchangeable, since pretty much all the world’s important and sensitive information is locked behind some sort of password nowadays.  Every week we learn of new cyber security threats that could allow other countries or terrorist organizations to obtain intelligence about the United States of America that they have no business knowing.  Small time hackers delight in stealing people’s passwords for online banking accounts, too.  Obviously, having air tight passwords is important, but many people don’t know how to manage and create their passwords to lock down critical sites.

This infographic is all about how to make a really strong password that can’t be easily decoded by hacking software — the way most script kiddies and wanna-be hackers get their hands on passwords.  If a real hacker was after your stuff, you probably wouldn’t have a hope in the world.  But against garden variety security hackers, these tips will go a long way.
