Create strong, unique passwords with a manager
Reused passwords mean one breach unlocks everything. A password manager fixes that without you memorising a thing.
- Use a long passphrase of several random words rather than a short, complex password.
- Never reuse the same password across accounts — one breach then exposes them all.
- Use a reputable password manager to generate and store a different password for every site.
- Turn on multi-factor authentication on email, banking and anything important.
- Check haveibeenpwned.com to see if your email has appeared in a known breach.
- Change any password straight away if a service tells you it’s been involved in a breach.
Still stuck after those?
You’ve done the right thing by trying. Send whedo.it a quick note — what you tried, what you saw — and a senior pair of eyes will be on it the same business day.
