Longer is better (aim for 12+ characters): the longer your password, the harder it is to crack.

Use different character types: Uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols — variety strengthens security.

Avoid obvious information: No personal details or predictable patterns like "123456" or "password".

Use passphrases: Combine unrelated words. Example: Correct!Horse#Battery$Staples — secure and easy to remember.
