選擇安全的密碼
確保密碼對您而言容易記住,卻又難以被他人猜到(包含電腦程式)。
選用好密碼能確保您電腦的安全。倘若密碼容易被猜到,則您的個人資訊容易遭到有心人士利用。
People could even use computers to systematically try to guess your password, so even one that would be difficult for a human to guess might be extremely easy for a computer program to crack. Here are some tips for choosing a good password:
-
在密碼中混用英文大寫與小寫、數字、半形符號、空格等字元,這樣做能讓密碼難以被猜到。並且半形符號種類眾多,能創產生出多種密碼組合,使別人再怎麽嘗試也試不出您的密碼。
A good method for choosing a password is to take the first letter of each word in a phrase that you can remember. The phrase could be the name of a movie, a book, a song or an album. For example, “Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions” would become F:ARoMD or faromd or f: aromd.
Make your password as long as possible. The more characters it contains, the longer it should take for a person or computer to guess it.
Do not use any words that appear in a standard dictionary in any language. Password crackers will try these first. The most common password is “password” — people can guess passwords like this very quickly!
不要使用任何個人資訊,像是生日、車牌號碼,或是家人的名字。
不要使用任何名詞。
-
選擇能夠快速輸入的密碼,減少他人在您輸入密碼時偷看您密碼的機會。
永遠不要將密碼寫下來,這樣做很容易被找到!
對不同用途使用不同的密碼。
-
對不同帳號使用不同的密碼。
若您將所有帳號都設為相同的密碼,一旦某個帳號的密碼被猜中,其他帳號也將遭他人控制。
您也可以在無關緊要的帳號上用同一組密碼(像是各種網站),在重要的帳號上用另一組密碼(像是網路銀行或電子信箱)。雖然這麽做不像「對不同帳號使用不同的密碼」來的安全,但可以降低記密碼的難度。
時常更改密碼。
