Translations:Veilig omgaan met wachtwoorden/6/en

Many of us use obvious passwords that are easy to remember. After all, you want to be able to log in quickly and not make things hard for yourself. And it’s never nice to discover that you can’t remember your password yet again, and need to click the infamous ‘forgotten password’ button for the umpteenth time. But this approach usually results in poor password choices – such as ‘123456’, ‘password’, ‘qwerty’ or a combination of your name and birthday – which aren’t secure because they’re much easier for computer programs to crack.
