The recommendation to change passwords again and again is often read, but rarely followed. Only larger companies and corporations sometimes force their employees to do this - and they are the ones who need it. Changing passwords frequently is particularly useful when a network is already affected, i.e. there are already intruders. This way you can at least try to lock them out again and again. Changing passwords also entails risks, however, because the reset can be intercepted under certain belgium telegram screening circumstances. Not to mention the fact that you simply can no longer access your data because you constantly forget your password due to the many changes and a reset is extremely complicated for some services (if you have ever chatted with a Microsoft employee in India about this, you know what I am talking about).
Passwords don't have to be complicated - just long
When it comes to password recommendations, you always read that passwords should contain as many capital letters, special characters and numbers as possible, have at least x characters, and so on and so forth. But nobody can remember Har7k1r1!%. Writing it down and sticking it under the keyboard as a Post-it note isn't much better. The result: The most popular passwords among Germans are "Hello",
"Password" and "123456", as the Hasso Plattner Institute found again last year. But it could be so simple! Mathematics shows us that the security of a password increases exponentially with its length, not its complexity. So you shouldn't think in passwords, but in password phrases, as Edward Snowden explained to the brilliant comedian John Oliver back in 2015. In practice, this means that "My Mother Has Straw berry Cake" is much more secure than the above-mentioned Har7k1r1!.
