Yet, it\u2019s puzzling how often we reset our passwords because we simply forget our <em>strong<\/em> passwords. It can leave you frustrated by the entire process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The easy solution is just to create any old password and hope for the best. However, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/3-easy-steps-that-protect-your-website-from-hackers\/\">getting hacked<\/a> is something you\u2019ll never want to experience because criminals want to steal your credit card information and even your identity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>So, how do you create a secure password while still remembering it?<\/em> Below we\u2019ll explore strategies for creating the strongest password possible (that you can actually remember).<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-1-use-bruce-schneier-s-method\">1. Use Bruce Schneier\u2019s Method<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In 2008, security expert Bruce Schneier suggested a new, clever <a href=\"https:\/\/www.schneier.com\/blog\/archives\/2014\/03\/choosing_secure_1.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">password method<\/a>. His advice is simple: take a sentence and turn it into a password. First, select a sentence that\u2019s memorable to you. Then, assign each word a series of characters to help you remember it.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here are a few examples:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>My pet patches is a pug = MYp!P@iSaP?<\/li><li>I love peanut butter pretzels = 1&lt;3PnUt.Btt3r.PtZL!<\/li><li>Try bathing your dog once a day = TbURd1@d<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>The more random and strange your series of characters the better. So, rather than having to remember a string of random letters and numbers, you\u2019ll just need to remember a sentence.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"hgrp\"><h4>You might like&#8230;<\/h4><ul><li><span class=\"prod-icon\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/dedicated-server\" data-element-location=\"body.post_content.related_prod_block\" data-element-type=\"button\" data-element-label=\"dedicated_servers\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/dedicated-hosting-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/dedicated-hosting-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/dedicated-hosting-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/dedicated-hosting.png 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/dedicated-server\" class=\"hgrp-link\" data-element-location=\"body.post_content.related_prod_block\" data-element-type=\"link\" data-element-label=\"dedicated_servers\">Dedicated Servers<\/a><\/li><li><span class=\"prod-icon\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/web-hosting\" data-element-location=\"body.post_content.related_prod_block\" data-element-type=\"button\" data-element-label=\"shared_hosting\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" src=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/shared-150x150.png\" class=\"attachment-thumbnail size-thumbnail\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/shared-150x150.png 150w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/shared-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/shared.png 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/a><\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/web-hosting\" class=\"hgrp-link\" data-element-location=\"body.post_content.related_prod_block\" data-element-type=\"link\" data-element-label=\"shared_hosting\">Shared Hosting<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-use-a-password-maker-online\">2.

Or maybe you\u2019ve run out of ideas on developing your 40th password for the month.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Well, no worries. You can use HostGator\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/passwords\">password maker<\/a> to alleviate the stress. In a matter of seconds, you can have a unique alphanumeric password (special characters optional).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh5.googleusercontent.com\/xwGiv0HCCwn6kIPr3raBSuD0gouAH8DxGgZMAkcXS-peI8vGFFxIHHb5k63Yf8uweQ00wFpmhBeLY-tGfiXRL_98VjdjI7x6b-1quYhJUI_6LSf9Uem_5u88VX2QF5NAtaA-06Q\" alt=\"hostgator online password maker\"\/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>With <a href=\"https:\/\/smallbiztrends.com\/2016\/04\/cyber-attacks-target-small-business.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">43% of cyber attacks<\/a> targeting small businesses, this password maker gives you peace of mind.<em> <\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Still worried? <\/em>Review your password selections with a security expert.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-try-multi-factor-authentication\">3. Try Multi-Factor Authentication<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Can you prove who you are twice, please? Multi-factor authentication requires that a person provides at least two pieces of evidence to prove their identity.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>First, you\u2019ll enter your password and then provide proof with something you know, something you have, or something you are. You might be familiar with answering questions about your past residences or car loans. Or as a remote worker, your employer may ask you to download an app on your smartphone and enter an ever-changing number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>'Two-factor authentication will stop most casual attacks dead in their tracks. It&#8217;s not perfect, though. A determined attacker who is directly targeting a specific account might be able to find ways to work around it,'\u009d says <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/better-than-the-best-password-how-to-use-2fa-to-improve-your-security\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Ed Bott<\/a>, an award-winning technology writer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-choose-a-random-string-of-words\">4. Choose a Random String of Words<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Hackers don\u2019t just hack for no reason. They have a motive. It\u2019s reported that <a href=\"https:\/\/enterprise.verizon.com\/resources\/reports\/2019-data-breach-investigations-report.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">71% of breaches<\/a> are financially motivated. Thieves are attempting to access your bank accounts and credit cards.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Protect your personal and business accounts by choosing a random string of words as your password. The goal is to use multiple words as well as words of different lengths.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For example, something like 'Houses waterloo algebra connie kayak spine tissue earthquake Beyonce toolkit'\u009d would be quite strong. When trying to remember your passphrase, see if you can build a story around the disparate words.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you\u2019re looking to create a truly random string of words, check out this <a href=\"https:\/\/untroubled.org\/pwgen\/ppgen.cgi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">passphrase tool<\/a>. You can choose the number of words, maximum word length, and random capitalization.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-5-the-electrum-method\">5. The Electrum Method<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>With Bitcoin all the rage, a different kind of password security is necessary. The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/Bitcoin\/comments\/1retxr\/psa_using_electrum_with_a_12_word_seed_is_so_much\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Electrum Method<\/a> manages the Bitcoin wallet and requires a 12-word seed to access your Bitcoin addresses.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can take the same approach and develop your 12-word phrase. You\u2019ll want the words to be completely random. Don\u2019t use common phrases you learned during your high school literature class. When you\u2019re ready, use <a href=\"https:\/\/password.kaspersky.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">this password checker<\/a> to test whether it can withstand brute force attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Security expert <a href=\"https:\/\/blog.securegroup.com\/passwords-why-yours-suck-and-how-to-come-up-with-strong-ones\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Stefan Topuzov<\/a> offers a reminder about using public methods:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>'The moment a method goes public, ways to break it are also being designed. This is why I referred to passwords as imperfect&#8230; The best way to come up with really good passwords is to be aware of the methods used to break them, and opt for a scheme that subverts these methods.'\u009d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-6-the-pao-method\">6. The PAO Method<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You\u2019re probably the primary reason why hackers take your passwords. <em>Yes, really.<\/em> An <a href=\"https:\/\/thehackernews.com\/2021\/02\/why-human-error-is-1-cyber-security.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">IBM study<\/a> uncovered that human error is the main cause of 95% of cybersecurity breaches. The good news is that you can fight back by creating a strong password for your accounts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rlptraining.com\/pao-system\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Person-Action-Object (PAO) method<\/a> is a memorization technique for developing unbreakable passwords that include a long string of numbers. You assign a two-digit number to a person, action, or object.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/lh3.googleusercontent.com\/qd1TNRrr557XP2dvaBSUhYdJEmU0hVrIRTxgVxtEK1aBnNTCaId8dOIYh4WJOqad24xC-EKttmb1_B8E3I00Vk3MdG7FCdpXTxLH-L1ZlJf6np1etYot-kKzB3ehWzY-jz3Y0I8\" alt=\"\"\/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Using the chart above, the PAO to remember 861326 would be Prince-Crawling On A Stage-Football. Of course, you\u2019ll want to use PAOs familiar to you.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-7-phonetic-muscle-memory\">7. Phonetic Muscle Memory<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Lastly, try flexing your phonetic muscle to help you remember your password. Go to our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hostgator.com\/passwords\">password maker<\/a> and scan the passwords to find a phonetic structure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You want to find passwords that you can sound out in your head. For example, <em>25XmRbwb<\/em> may translate into <em>25 misters be w be<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The goal isn\u2019t to create a real word. Instead, you are seeking to make sense of your random password through sound. That way, it\u2019s easier for you to remember - but appears completely random to other people.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-remember-your-strong-password\">Remember Your Strong Password<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Passwords protect your data from hackers.
