Secure (hard-to-crack) Password Techniques

For almost every account that you make online, you are required to make a secure password. Here is a guide on to how-to make a hard-to-crack password :

Stretching Password is an advantage :
Create a password that has eight or more characters since this is usually the minimum for most password requirements. The longer the password the more secure it is likely to be.
 

Form a "random" sequence of words and/or letters :
Create a phrase or series of letter that is seemingly "random" but is easy to remember. Call this your "base-word."

 Add numbers to the base-word to make it more secure :

• Example: Add the ages of the children to the end making it "jecamije22191612".
• Example: Add the house number to the end of the base-word to create "houseonspooner1500". 

Use punctuation and symbols to "complicate" it further:

• Example: Add random punctuation to create "jecamije_22191612".
• Example: Add a symbol to the word to make "houseonspooner#1500". 

 Create complexity with upper and lowercase letters:

• Example: Take advantage of adding capital letter to create "JeCaMiJe22191612".
•  Example: Add the house number to the end of the base-word to create "houseonSpooner1500". 

Generate similar but altered passwords:
Use the same or similar base-words to help you remember your passwords easily without making them "too" easy to crack.

• Example: "JeCaMiJe_22191612" can become "mykidsJeCaMiJe-90807060" or "12161922*JeCaMiJe".
• Example: "HouseonSpooner#1500" can become "1500*myfirstHouseonSpooner" or "***15HouseonSpooner00".
