THE NEED OF

STILL HAS A LONG
WAY T O G O . . . .
• Hacking used to be about having fun, now it's no more than a source of profits.

• Penetrating information systems has become an illegal industry worth billions.

Criminals flock to hacking to take advantage of all the money there is to be
made.

• Most people and small businesses don’t think they can be victims of hacking.
Most hackers indeed target large companies or government institutions.
• But the cold truth is cybercriminals are ruthless and can target anyone.

 WHY DO WE NEED A STRONG
PA S S W O R D ?
• As discussed from the previous slides regarding data breach being common these days, we need to be careful
and aware of the information we throw online. Unauthorized access is a potentially major problem for anyone
who uses a computer or high-tech devices such as smartphones or tablets.
• The consequences for victims of these break-ins can include the loss of valuable data such as presentations,
emails, and music. Victims may also have their bank account information, money, or even their identity stolen.
Moreover, unauthorized users may use someone else's computer to break the law, which could put the victim in
legal trouble.

• One of the most common ways that hackers break into computers is by guessing
passwords. Simple and commonly used passwords enable intruders to easily
gain access and control of a computing device .

SECURITY

• Most importantly, passwords must be long and complex.

• Long and complex passwords require more effort and time for a hacker to guess.
• Passwords should contain at least ten characters and have a combination of characters
such as commas, percent signs, and parentheses, as well as upper-case and lower-case
letters and numbers.
• Users should never write down their passwords, as that makes it easier for the passwords
to be stolen and used by someone else.
• Also, never use the same password for two or more devices, as hackers who break into
one machine will try to use the same password to take control of others.
