Is Your Password Weak?

Back to blog homepage for: Tech Better

By Ryan Williams, TechBetter.com - One of our network engineers came to me this week and asked me to write a tech tip on the importance of using complex passwords. He had recently had a few experiences where clients were reluctant to use suitable passwords. I had already written on this subject several times, so I was reluctant to write yet another tip. Then, I came across PasswordMeter.com. If you think your password is "complex enough," try testing it on this website. You might be surprised. (Just to be on the safe side, I suggest not testing your actual password but rather a very similar password. You can never be too safe.)
