It's an astonishing fact that most people base their passwords on a birth date, pet's or child's name, anniversary date, or even their favorite game or a popular phrase, making it as easy as breathing for hackers and other cyber criminals to steal their personal data.
Did you know that there's a large word list (200,000+ words) circulated among hackers known as a dictionary cracker? This word list is played against the places where you might enter a password such as your bank, facebook account, twitter account, email account and so on.
And even if your password has a single layer of encryption, your password can be history in as little as 30 minutes to 24 hours.
It's unbelievably easy to get hacked these days.
According to a New York Times Article, the chances are that most people will get hacked at some point in their life. And it's not just about access to a single account. Since a lot of people use the same password for many or all of their accounts, it's about comprehensive identity theft.

A typical secure password might look something like this: hRDs5i3M9o58saCS while a typical secure password with special characters might look something like this: k9d^i96hHv(#sC58.
Believe it or not it's not enough to create a single random password, so here are some important tips:
