Password Management PA Turnpike Commission

Creating Strong Passwords Passwords must be: At least 8 characters in length. A mix of letters (uppercase and/or lowercase), numbers, and/or special characters. Some people find that creating a passphrase is easier to remember than a password. A passphrase is a complex password based on a memorable phrase, song or book title, line of poetry, etc.

Creating Strong Passwords Passwords should not be: A word found in the dictionary, whether spelled forwards or backwards, or a word preceded or followed by a digit (e.g., secret1, 1secret). The User ID. Personal information, names of family, places, pets, birthdays, address, hobbies, or any other information that could be associated with you. Words that are slang, dialect, jargon, etc. Common keyboard sequences, such as "qwerty89" or "abc123”.

Creating Good Passphrases Passwords should: Not be too common (2bor!2b is pretty common!). Be a phrase that has personal meaning but might not appear widely. For example, the first line of your wedding vows (if you wrote them yourself) would be memorable but not widely available. A random line from your favorite movie is good too. Combine phrases to make them even stronger. Not be passphrases you have seen in print as examples.

Password Policy Issues Passwords should not be written down or stored electronically. Choose passwords that you can remember without writing them down. If you do have to write something down, write a hint that others won’t be able to decipher instead of the complete password - and store it securely. Change initial passwords, password resets, and default passwords the first time you log in. These passwords can be vulnerable to guessing or to the automated programs that hackers employ to try to break into systems. Verify that all of your passwords meet the password strength guidelines in this module. Change any that do not.

The different modules of this tutorial will: Discuss the risks to your computer and the data it contains. Provide some guidelines for avoiding risks. Suggest some practical and easy solutions. Please review these modules at your convenience.
