Hack? Brute Force? What are those?
We cannot emphasize enough how important it is to create and maintain strong passwords.
- They prevent unauthorized access to your SK Virtual Visit account
- They protecting your personal health information
You only have to listen to or read the news daily to hear about stolen data. Hackers are getting smart; you have to be more innovative by creating stronger passwords that are not easy to hack.
Research shows that a password containing letters (upper and lower case), numbers, and symbols that is 11- 18 characters long, takes years to hack. Hackers are less likely to break a long, complicated password. Hackers take their job seriously, and there are automated means of cracking password codes. Using common combinations and short characters is easy for the automated machine.
It is never a good idea to use the following as passwords:
- numbers such as 12345, your phone number and address or your personal information like date of birth
- numbers or letters that are sequential or that appear in a logical sequence;
- your username slightly altered;
- dictionary words that can be easily hacked with a dictionary program by hackers
