How to Make a Good Username | Create a Unique and Secure Username

See the best way to come up with a new username. We break down types of usernames, why secure usernames are important, and how to create them effectively!

Over the last few years, you&rsquo;ve probably heard all about the importance of using strong, unique passwords for your online accounts. But have you actually practiced doing so? Perhaps you aren&rsquo;t worried about a data breach or hackers targeting you, because they only go after big companies, right?
Wrong. Very wrong. In fact, cybercriminals target thousands of small businesses and individuals on a daily basis. But whether you&rsquo;re running a Fortune 500 company, a small business, or if you&rsquo;re an entrepreneur or a contractor working from a home office, there is one thing all cybersecurity experts recommend and agree on &mdash; using unique passwords for all online accounts.
A strong, unique password is an effective deterrent to cybercriminals, but unfortunately, many organizations still fail to encourage their use. The main hindrance is that it can be difficult to remember different strings of random letters and numbers for the multitude of accounts we all have. It&rsquo;s so much easier to simply use a few words or a phrase that&rsquo;s easy to remember, for each and every account.
But that is exactly what cybercriminals count on.
In this post, I will discuss the idea of "password strength" and what you can do to make your passwords more secure and easier to manage.

<h2 id="whatmakesapasswordstrong">What Makes a Password Strong?</h2>
A strong password is considered to be a string of at least 12 random upper and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters such as a question mark. Many organizations now require you to create passwords conforming to these guidelines, which is good. However, they can't stop people from using that same password for multiple accounts, which is definitely not recommended.
<h3 dir="ltr">Password strength vs. password complexity</h3>
Let's start by talking about a couple of scenarios you have likely found yourself in:
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
You sign up for an account or change your password online, where the site gives you feedback regarding strength. Usually, it's symbolized by a line or dot that changes from red (weak), yellow (decent), and green (strong).
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
You sign up for an online account or change your password on an account where a certain amount of complexity is required for a password to be accepted: minimum length, maximum length, special characters, capital letters, numbers, etc.
</li>
</ul>
So, when it comes to creating passwords, what do these terms, strength, and complexity mean?
There is some overlap between strength and complexity in passwords. A password like P@ssw0rd might meet the complexity requirements listed above, but it certainly isn't strong. You might ask yourself, "Why isn't that a strong password? Didn't it meet complexity requirements?"
The short answer is that while P@ssw0rd met some arbitrary complexity requirements, it isn't a strong password because it features the type of predictable substitutions that humans employ when trying to outsmart a computer. We&rsquo;ve used that exact password so much that computers know to try it (along with several hundred other common passwords) before anything else.
To better demonstrate the idea of password strength, I&rsquo;ll use an example from Gibson Research Corporation&rsquo;s <a href="https://www.grc.com/haystack.htm">&ldquo;Password Haystack&rdquo; tool</a>: Which of the following two passwords is stronger, more secure, and more difficult to crack?
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;D0g.....................
&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;PrXyc.N(n4k77#L!eVdAfp9
It&rsquo;s a trick question. The first password is actually stronger, even though it contains a simple/common word like &lsquo;dog&rsquo; and uses predictable substitution. I believe this example serves as a great demonstration of how password strength differs from password complexity.&nbsp;
The first password is stronger for a couple of reasons:&nbsp;
<ol>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
It employs &ldquo;padding&rdquo; in the password (that&rsquo;s all of those periods at the end).
</li>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
It&rsquo;s one character longer than the second.
</li>
</ol>
Why? It&rsquo;s due to the idea of a password&rsquo;s &ldquo;search space,&rdquo; or the number of different combinations of passwords that can be created using different character sets and a password&rsquo;s length.&nbsp;
This number of different combinations is used to exemplify the number of &ldquo;attempts&rdquo; an attacker would have to make in order to crack that password; the more attempts needed, the better. It&rsquo;s important to note (as the Haystack tool points out) that the padding in the example padded password isn&rsquo;t great; it&rsquo;s repetitive and only at the end of the password.&nbsp;
In theory, the first password is more secure. But if this type of padding were to become common, attackers would likely include these types of variations in the dictionaries (lists of common passwords) they use when attempting to crack a password.
&nbsp;
<h3 dir="ltr">How does a password get hacked? What can you do to prevent that?</h3>
A strong password is the simplest yet most powerful tool against cyberattacks. It can thwart malicious access to your personal details and protect you from fraud and other devastating consequences of a data breach.
When it comes to preventing your passwords from being hacked, there are some things you can control and others you cannot. Let's start by exploring the things you cannot control.
<h4 dir="ltr">What you can't control</h4>
How online services store their users' passwords
Online services rarely tell you how they store your password. Even if they did, you aren&rsquo;t able to change it.&nbsp;
Hopefully, every online service you subscribe to uses a secure password hashing algorithm to obscure your password before they store it. There are many different approaches to hashing passwords; some are more secure than others, and an essential difference between algorithms is how fast or slow they are.
Ideally, your password is hashed using a robust, slow algorithm so that an attacker is constrained in the number of attempts per second/minute they are able to make.
This difference in speed is another reason why having a strong password is so important: if you take the time to generate a strong password (long, difficult to guess), it will take much longer for an attacker to guess your password correctly.&nbsp;
Unfortunately, some online services don't hash passwords at all, which means passwords are stored in plain text that can be read by anyone with access to the database where user information is stored, which leaves your password completely exposed if a malicious actor was able to get the contents of a service's passwords.
How an attack is executed
Hackers can employ various tools, strategies, and hardware in an attack. If an attacker can generate 10 thousand attempts per second, there is an extremely high likelihood that a hacker will crack a short but complex password in a reasonable amount of time.
Here&rsquo;s a real example: I used a random password generator to generate this password of 8 characters: 2xI5#%fX. This would be cracked in about 3 hours if an attacker were able to generate 10 thousand guesses per second. If I double the length of the password to 16 characters (t16qq*T4u*#^WtEg), it&rsquo;s estimated that it would take over 100 years to crack the password at 10 thousand attempts per second. 10 thousand attempts per second may seem like a lot, but if we&rsquo;re talking about an offline device, like your laptop, it&rsquo;s quite possible for an attacker with the right means.
<h3 dir="ltr">What you can control</h3>
How your passwords are generated and stored
<img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/kPcD-ph37Lp_D9cBzfm641SJR49zd-nzRNU9bf_qYERhfzwvHk3UdjaMRoDuT5VR5YMRdDPJjUuGTg0DgwoJZK_K_pZ2ojqqE8duCf6Pm8FzMtu2BBDBOu1PHscUjTjEHpdtmaKKcLI-5pdZSwGBJ3s" width="624" height="247">
A good password manager will store passwords in an encrypted state and use a robust and secure algorithm to generate passwords for you. The combination of these two things is the most straightforward step you can take to improve your overall password strength and security. For example, our password manager, TeamPassword, offers a password generation tool with options to specify password length and character sets. TeamPassword makes it easy to generate and save secure passwords for any service you use. Additionally, TeamPassword encrypts all passwords with a "master key" (that you set) before sending them to their servers. No one can read them without your master key.
How passwords are shared within your business
<img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/3b1HaJpdg6bCgPp9lUAncw1H7Hr6veCYgpiqGnUYnMdNiYAKi9j1sh71xGDVIFyJ8rdz5JmXsWqlJdik1f0ElA3bw5syZuIRxfc20RVvzQwCZIcVhAs_cvSrQymKvYju8luU6SYQy2oJ2hD0UvCKuco" width="334" height="260">
One common and insecure practice that I've seen companies employ is to keep a spreadsheet of passwords to company services that are shared with everyone in the company. It's dangerous because it lacks any granularity in who can see/use passwords in the company. This is another area where a password manager is desirable, as it can provide<a href="https://teampassword.com/blog/secure-password-sharing"> essential access controls</a> to company account passwords.
<h2 id="4tipsforstrongpassword">4 Tips for Making a Strong Password</h2>
<h3 dir="ltr">1. Use a Password Manager to Keep Track of your Passwords</h3>
<img src="https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/9gqIpgPwQuKxM5LAhaNxYzAoC24RcNSrqFcIs5LOhatiZlcpo472A2BqCEfX_RYAPDNClCvxCPVx7q3lx6YwigDrxGusnZ2uxjSEw1XhpX_-BWSawh6TemBiObrc0u5kg7lQiFs0us9RMaiVIhnHrws" width="412" height="262">
Creating and remembering unique passwords for all these accounts is difficult. This is where your password manager comes in handy. A tool like<a href="https://teampassword.com/"> TeamPassword</a> keeps track of all your passwords and manages access to the different sites and apps you use.
This software stores all log-in information for all sites and accounts you use and helps you log into them automatically. The software encrypts your password database with a master password which is the only one you need to remember.
<h3 dir="ltr">2. Use a Password Generator, or create a Passphrase</h3>
<img src="https://lh4.googleusercontent.com/42GcXutqEVLUiVFAcdhGJhYoWTyNCLLTFUEd_goJO5n0arjSnSQ9I5Ajm6D1eIQrV7lcPVyKWp76YbgkCZvK5UO6CwPVUsVAq_ydwq3YdamXzDf8v25F6V6_WEbJOzJ6SIpwYb_h0k_27y8phV45LIE" width="445" height="277">
The simplest way to create a strong password is to use a <a href="https://teampassword.com/password-generator">password generator</a>. However, consider creating a passphrase if you need to remember the password. Use a sequence of words that creates a funny and memorable image or are related to the product for which you&rsquo;re creating it.&nbsp;
Good passphrase:&nbsp;
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
frog-yellowish-stranger-Timestamp
</li>
</ul>
Even though this lacks a variety of character types, it clocks in at 33 characters which makes it an incredibly high-entropy password.&nbsp;
Bad passphrase:
<ul>
<li dir="ltr" aria-level="1">
the-windmills-of-your-mind
</li>
</ul>
Stay away from song lyrics, famous quotes, and phrases that make sense.&nbsp;
<h3 dir="ltr">3. Longer is Better: 12 Characters is a Starting Point</h3>
As we learned in the &ldquo;How an attack is executed&rdquo; section, simply doubling an 8-character password to 16 characters can easily 35x the amount of time it takes for a cybercriminal to crack your password.&nbsp;
We recommend using the longest password the service will allow. Since you&rsquo;re using a password manager and your passwords are conveniently auto-filled or copy-pasted, there&rsquo;s no reason not to go long.&nbsp;
<h3 dir="ltr">4. Use Two-factor Authentication (2FA)</h3>
<img src="https://lh6.googleusercontent.com/Xddjq43lhwTm0igWLehZzUi0WbcGXRLVYKEMtAheREOcLhJcmuCW259XGE8dVRbF9dDnOY40gOOEksfQ3a6db3BySOxRdOGiNOvgiDhrwNd650jpDUtUfu9cDLEXNjejxBdvV2Q3w9QsKs-LJFHR5sA" width="388" height="304">
Two-factor authentication (2FA) is one of the most sophisticated data security technologies. This security system requires two unique forms of identification to access an account.
Your password is the first security factor, and the second can be biometrics using your fingerprint, face, retina, a text with a code sent to your email/smartphone, or a code on an authenticator app on your phone. For high-security applications, you can set up physical keys such as Yubikey.&nbsp;
The unlikely will eventually happen. Servers get hacked. Your super-strong password may get compromised. 2FA provides a lot more security for a little extra effort.&nbsp;
<h2 id="avoidthesepasswordmistakes">Avoid These Password Mistakes</h2>
<h3 dir="ltr">Don&rsquo;t reuse passwords across accounts</h3>
Because there are things we cannot control, limiting the impact of a password being leaked or stolen is essential. The best way to defend against this possibility is to use a unique password for every service that requires a password. By never reusing a password, you limit the scope of impact that a single stolen password could have on your business.
In many cases, when a large group of passwords is stolen, they are leaked or sold online, and you can guarantee that some attackers will take that information and try it on more services than the one from which a hacker stole the password.
<h3 dir="ltr">Avoid Using Passwords Known to be Stolen</h3>
When in doubt, check the compromised password database <a href="https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords">haveibeenpwned</a>.
Words and phrases such as &ldquo;password,&rdquo; &ldquo;security&rdquo;, &ldquo;default&rdquo;, 123456789, QWERTY, abc123, will be hacked in seconds. The easiest password combinations are also the riskiest.
Look out for information on cybercriminal activity and data breaches to stay informed regarding your information. Unfortunately, hundreds of millions of people&rsquo;s account data is leaked annually.
<h3 dir="ltr">Don't store passwords where they can be discovered</h3>
Storing your passwords in spreadsheets, emails, messaging tools, or note-taking apps are just a few ways people expose themselves to cyberattacks. Avoid these<a href="https://teampassword.com/blog/top-5-dangerous-ways-to-store-your-passwords"> dangerous ways to store your passwords</a> and opt for an encrypted password management tool.

The number of businesses still clinging to outdated software like a toddler to a soggy security blanket is frankly embarrassing. It's like leaving your front door wide open and inviting the neighborhood raccoons in for a Cheetos binge.&nbsp;
Now, if you're a manager with employees under your wing, then cybersecurity needs to be a top priority. These folks are on the front lines, facing down phishing scams and malware attacks every single day.
Here's the deal: there are a bunch of rookie mistakes that can leave your company vulnerable. Let's tackle the big five and make sure you're not committing them.
<h2>1. Failing to Train Employees on Cybersecurity</h2>
One of the most important things you can do as a manager is to <a href="https://www.chanty.com/blog/security-best-practices-for-remote-teams/" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">train your staff on cybersecurity</a>. This means they understand the risks they face and how to mitigate them.&nbsp;

You don&rsquo;t want to scare them, but you want to make sure they know how to protect themselves and the company from cyber threats. This can include understanding the latest <a href="https://teampassword.com/blog/cybersecurity-complete-guide" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">hacking techniques</a> and how they&rsquo;re used to target businesses like yours, how ransomware works, how to avoid phishing (a common method hackers use to try to steal data), and more.&nbsp;
If they find the topic overwhelming, start them with a video such as this one:
<iframe width="560" height="314" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/wBgWJFVt2RI" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>
You can even ask your IT department to create a cybersecurity training module that all employees can access. This can help ensure that everyone knows the latest threats and knows what to do if something happens. Plus, it can help prevent employees from panicking when an incident does occur.
<h2>2. Using Outdated Hardware and Not Updating Software</h2>
If your employees use outdated hardware and software, that may put your business at risk. For example, if they&rsquo;re using computers with Windows 7, security patches for that version have stopped being released. That means that hackers could easily exploit any bugs that might be present in the software.&nbsp;

You don&rsquo;t want computers with outdated software on your network. This could increase your risk of malware infections and other security incidents. If possible, you should provide employees with the newest hardware and software.&nbsp;

If you&rsquo;re managing a large business, replacing every computer in the company might not be feasible. However, you can ensure your IT team is putting in the effort to keep computers secure. This means installing security patches and updating antivirus software regularly.
<h2>3. Not Using Strong, Unique Passwords</h2>
Employees might have habits that could put your company at risk. For example, some employees might have old habits from their personal lives, such as refusing to change their passwords. Or, they might be using a password that&rsquo;s easy to guess.&nbsp;

Cybercriminals know that many people don&rsquo;t change their passwords regularly, so they try to target people who use the same password. If <a href="https://teampassword.com/blog/top-5-dangerous-ways-to-store-your-passwords" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">they get access to one of your employee&rsquo;s accounts</a>, they can use it to try to get access to a lot of other accounts. You don&rsquo;t want this to happen to your business.&nbsp;

Make sure that all of your employees use strong, unique passwords. Ideally, they should be fully randomized using something like <a href="https://teampassword.com/password-generator" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">this password generator</a>. Consider implementing two-factor authentication (2FA) on your sensitive accounts. This means that employees must enter a unique code and their password to log in. 2FA makes it much harder for hackers to break into their accounts.
<h2>4. Storing Sensitive Data in the Cloud Without Encryption</h2>
If you&rsquo;re using the cloud for storage, you might have employees storing sensitive data there. While this can be useful for sharing documents with clients and partners, you must also ensure that information is safe. Some <a href="https://blog.internxt.com/best-private-cloud-storage/" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">cloud providers</a>, like Internxt, let you encrypt your data.&nbsp;

You could risk your business if you&rsquo;re storing sensitive data in the cloud without encryption. Hackers could access it if they get into the cloud account, which is very relevant to SaaS businesses and can be one of the <a href="https://blog.coupler.io/saas-challenges" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">SaaS management challenges</a>. This could lead to a breach that has severe financial and reputational consequences for your business.&nbsp;

You want to ensure you&rsquo;re storing sensitive data in the cloud with encryption. This way, even if a <a href="https://teampassword.com/blog/cybersecurity-complete-guide" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">hacker gets into your account</a>, they won&rsquo;t be able to read your data. Some providers also charge less if you encrypt your data. So, it could actually be cheaper to use encryption than not.
<h2>5. Having No Processes for Detecting Breaches and Incidents</h2>
Another type of common cybersecurity mistake does not have processes in place to detect breaches and incidents. You might have employees who are logging in from unsecured computers. Or computers that have malware, viruses, or other programs installed that could lead to a breach. You might not even realize something has gone wrong until it&rsquo;s too late.
&nbsp;
You might have employees accidentally sharing sensitive material with the wrong person. Or someone who inadvertently sends sensitive information to the wrong person. You might have an employee falsifying data, or another malicious employee could be trying to frame someone else. You don&rsquo;t want to miss any of these things.&nbsp;

You want to make sure you&rsquo;re prepared for them so you can resolve the situation as quickly as possible. To do this, you can create a list of events you want to be aware of, such as a new computer being added to your network or someone logging in from an unusual IP address.
<h2>Managing Employees While Protecting Your Company Online</h2>
Finally, while you want to protect your business from cybersecurity mistakes, you also don&rsquo;t want to create a culture of fear. You don&rsquo;t want employees to be so scared of making a mistake that they stop taking any action at all.&nbsp;

Instead, make sure that you&rsquo;re providing resources for employees to learn about cybersecurity. And encourage them to ask questions if they don&rsquo;t understand something. You can also provide employees with the tools they need to protect themselves online.<a href="https://teampassword.com/features" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank"> Password managers</a> are one of the best tools available to protect teams from cybersecurity threats. Also consider security services like antivirus software, a <a href="https://internxt.com/virus-scanner" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">virus scanner</a>, a <a href="https://teampassword.com/password-generator" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">password strength checker</a>, or an add-on to help them avoid phishing attempts.&nbsp;

You must protect your company from cybersecurity mistakes, and you can only do so by being aware of the risks and putting in the effort to make sure those risks don&rsquo;t become real problems.

<div class="">
Passwords are the gateways to our internet accounts and are the first line of defense for your company&rsquo;s data. Think about what information is held within your company computers and accounts: Personally Identifiable Information (PII) for your customers (including name, phone number, address, and email) and PCI data (credit card and banking information). This information is extremely valuable, and small businesses like yours are <a href="https://www.businessnewsdaily.com/8231-small-business-cybersecurity-guide.html" class="" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">regularly targeted&nbsp;</a>by cybercriminals. Passwords are a common vector since once you crack or obtain one, it is trivial for a hacker to export all of the data on the account.
<h3 class="pd-sh-color pd-sh-color-black">There are two big reasons you should be using a password manager:</h3>
1) Industry standard recommendations require strong, unique passwords. Generally speaking the longer the password, the harder it is to crack. It's also important not to use common words one can find in the dictionary. (You can read more from the U.S. Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency <a href="https://www.us-cert.gov/ncas/tips/ST04-002" class="" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">here</a>). Ideally, your passwords look like this: "39)*Q$bU%ER%#ZsBew*Ai0HRIV25XiLl&rdquo; (this one was just auto-generated from a <a href="https://teampassword.com/password-generator" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">password generator</a> in 2 mouse clicks).&nbsp;
<img src="https://cdn.buttercms.com/FuBMN80dSwCmrWBIJTjl" width="996" height="328" />
2) You need to remember that long, complex password for every site you visit. Would you rather store them in an encrypted database that only you can decrypt or in a spreadsheet or notebook that can be lost or stolen? &nbsp;Some businesses go the route of using shared spreadsheets like Google Sheets. But his has a <a href="https://blog.teampassword.com/the-risks-of-storing-your-passwords-in-google-sheets/" class="" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">number of issues as well</a>&nbsp;since you have to carefully set up access controls, manage different groups, and track when people make changes. These are all intuitive functions of a password manager.
3) You&rsquo;ll have to share a password with a colleague in many scenarios. Most people would just send an email with the login information. It gets the job done, but it&rsquo;s not the safest way. TeamPassword allows you to share logins without potentially compromising data.&nbsp;
<h3 class="pd-sh-color pd-sh-color-black">Are password managers easy to use?</h3>
These are the big security and management reasons, but there are a lot of<a href="https://blog.teampassword.com/why-all-businesses-should-use-a-team-password-manager/" class="" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">&nbsp;intangible benefits</a>:
1) Productivity: How many times a day are you trying to remember passwords or answering questions from colleagues that are trying to get into shared accounts? This is instant and intuitive with TeamPassword.&nbsp;
2) Avoiding Extra Accounts: It's easy to forget about the subscriptions you're paying for. When you have one spot for all of your company accounts, it's easier to keep track of what tools or software systems you are and aren't using.&nbsp;
3) Speeding up Secure Onboarding and Off-Boarding: OneLogin's 2019 study revealed that 50% of ex-employees still had access to company data, and 20% of businesses experienced data breaches due to former employees. With a password manager, you can create groups (marketing, accounting, etc.) and easily share and revoke access as employees come and go.
In the end, cybersecurity products don't directly contribute to revenue so they can be hard to justify when you purely look at cost-- in that way they're like insurance. According to an IBM <a href="https://www.ibm.com/reports/data-breach" class="" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">study</a>, the average cost per record lost in a breach is $150, which adds up quickly&mdash;the loss of 100 customer data records would be $15,000 (which more than covers the cost of a password manager). But this usually requires investigation and remediation, costing <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2019/10/13/cyberattacks-cost-small-companies-200k-putting-many-out-of-business.html" class="" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">small businesses up to $200,000</a>. If you have California Customers, their data is protected by the CCPA (check your&nbsp;<a href="https://www.mypillow.com/california-consumer-privacy-act" class="" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">website</a>), which can fine businesses $2500 per record for an&nbsp;unintentional violation. Each state has its own specific rules, so it's helpful to check an <a href="https://iapp.org/resources/article/state-comparison-table/" class="" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">overview of data privacy and security laws</a> by state,

Passwords are the gateways to our internet accounts and the first line of defense for your company’s data. How are you protecting yours?

Passwords are the gateways to our internet accounts, and are the first line of defense for your company’s ...

Why Password Managers are a Need and not a Want

Passwords are the gateways to our internet accounts, and are the first line of defense for your company’s data. Think about what information is held within your company computers and accounts: Personally Identifiable Information (PII) for your customers (including name, phone number, address, email) and PCI data (credit card and banking information).

We've all worked with agencies who don't have their processes together, causing projects to run over schedule and over budget. Password managers provide a built-in procedure for handling sensitive information so you can win clients&rsquo; trust and outperform the competition. Not all password managers are created with business security in mind. Make sure yours has the following features so that you're improving security&nbsp;and&nbsp;saving time.&nbsp;
<h2>Control Access</h2>
Follow two simple steps to ensure your team members have the up-to-date information they need, and clients feel secure knowing that only the people directly involved in their project have access to their information.
<ol>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Create an individual Group for the client where you&rsquo;ll store all their specific logins</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">Add agency team members working on that client&rsquo;s account</li>
</ol>
<h2><img src="https://cdn.buttercms.com/K8IRmYGKRDGsltcdm3Om" alt="undefined" width="335" height="261" class="butter-float-left" /></h2>
<h2>Generate Secure Passwords</h2>
Show clients that you take the threat of hacking very seriously. Utilizing <a href="https://teampassword.com/password-generator" rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">TeamPassword&rsquo;s password generator</a> to create long, randomized passwords for you and your clients adds yet another layer of security to protect your (and their) online information.
<h2>Store and Share Client Passwords Securely</h2>
I&rsquo;d hate to be the <a href="https://teampassword.com/blog/2022-uber-breach#:~:text=In%20this%20case%2C%20one%20Uber%20contractor%20unknowingly%20allowed%20the%20hackers%20the%20access%20they%20needed." rel="follow noopener" target="_blank">contractor targeted</a> during the 2022 Uber data breach. In that instance, poor password hygiene opened the door for the cybercriminal to bully the contractor into giving up their multi-factor authentication code. Help your employees, your clients, and ultimately yourself by using a product built to share passwords securely. TeamPassword allows you to add and remove users with the click of a button.&nbsp;
<h2>Streamline Processes</h2>
With TeamPassword, we give you a centralized, client-friendly way to request logins so you can start providing value to your client (and start logging billable hours) immediately. Our streamlined process makes you look like the pro you are &mdash; and promises that you&rsquo;ll never waste your clients time having to go back to ask for passwords.

Solving Common Agency Problems with a Password Manager

In an increasingly digital world, we&rsquo;re switching more and more of our daily lives over to the Internet. While this brave new world is exciting and convenient, it&rsquo;s not without its problems.&nbsp;
The issue of unsafe passwords has been around for a while. But have you ever thought about where and how to store them?
Most of us have several passwords, and we&rsquo;re encouraged to never duplicate them. Some people simply write them all down on a piece of paper &mdash; which is fraught with danger. But others store their passwords electronically.
As you&rsquo;re about to find out, not all electronic systems of password storage are <a href="https://www.teampassword.com/blog/10-things-you-need-to-do-to-keep-passwords-safe" target="_blank" rel="noopener">safe</a>. Here are five of the most dangerous ways to store your passwords.&nbsp;
But before we begin:
Avoid bad idea passwords and dangerous storage methods with TeamPassword. This advanced <a href="https://www.teampassword.com/blog/why-you-need-a-password-manager" target="_blank" rel="noopener">password manager</a> features a selection of security features, including password encryption and two-step verification. Sign up for a <a href="https://app.teampassword.com/dashboard#signup/testimonial" rel="follow">free trial</a> today.&nbsp;

<h2>1. Email</h2>
Have you ever emailed yourself a password to ensure you&rsquo;re never without it? Great idea, right? Actually, emailing yourself your passwords is a really bad idea, and here&rsquo;s why:
<ul>
<li>Emails are usually sent in plain text. Without encryption, your passwords are susceptible if your email account is ever compromised.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Unsafe passwords sent via email often pass through several systems and servers. There&rsquo;ll also be a copy in your sent folder. If someone else can access your email account, your passwords become vulnerable.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Some email platforms store data locally on a drive. If someone steals your computer, phone, or tablet, your passwords become vulnerable.</li>
</ul>
A really bad idea for passwords is to send them via email &mdash; either to yourself or someone else. <a href="https://www.teampassword.com/blog/have-i-been-hacked-how-to-know-for-sure" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hackers </a>and scammers are more resourceful than ever, and they can often steal your information before you realize you&rsquo;ve been compromised.&nbsp;
It&rsquo;s tempting to send a quick email to yourself containing unsafe passwords when you sign up for new online services. For the sake of an extra minute or two, don&rsquo;t give fraudsters easy access to your accounts. Use an encrypted email vault to safeguard all your passwords.&nbsp;
<h2>2. Online Documents</h2>
A lot of people like the convenience of saving crucial information using online document systems such as Google Docs. But this is a bad idea for passwords, as these systems are designed for text &mdash; not sensitive data.
Yes, a password might protect your online document manager from unauthorized access. But what happens if that password is compromised? Many document software platforms don&rsquo;t offer encryption, two-step verification, or even the most basic security measures.&nbsp;
If you use online documents regularly, you&rsquo;re probably accessing your account on a regular basis &mdash; across several devices. What happens if you step away for a moment to buy a coffee, speak to a friend, or use the bathroom?
A criminal can access an unattended online document platform in seconds. And if this happens, it doesn't take a lot of effort to steal your unsafe passwords.&nbsp;
<h2>3. Instant Messaging Service</h2>
Instant messaging services provide us with a convenient way of staying in touch with friends and family. WhatsApp, Facebook Messenger, and Snapchat were designed for private online conversations &mdash; not for storing passwords.
People who store their passwords on these apps do so because they believe they&rsquo;re fully encrypted. While that&rsquo;s often the case, it&rsquo;s important to remember that instant messaging services are often left open and operating in the background.
Imagine someone picks up your phone while you&rsquo;re not paying attention. If you left your device unlocked, that person would be able to access your password in seconds.
It&rsquo;s always a bad idea when passwords are stored on instant messaging services. By nature, these apps are designed to operate in the background &mdash; alerting you when someone sends a message. And because they&rsquo;re open, anyone with the device in their hand might be able to steal your unprotected passwords.&nbsp;
Don&rsquo;t fall into the trap of utilizing bad ideas for password storage. Sign up for a <a href="https://app.teampassword.com/dashboard#signup/testimonial" target="_blank" rel="noopener">free trial</a> with TeamPassword, and give your unsafe passwords the protection they require.
<h2>4. Online Note-taker</h2>
Developers design online note-takers for everyday lists and reminders. While they&rsquo;re great for creating to-do and shopping lists, they&rsquo;re not so good for storing unsafe passwords.&nbsp;
An app such as Apple Notes is easy to use, accessible, and convenient. But it doesn&rsquo;t offer two-step authentication, encryption, or any sophisticated form of security.&nbsp;
If your computer or mobile device is unlocked, your saved passwords are vulnerable. In many cases, a criminal would simply need to open the app to gain access to your sensitive information.&nbsp;
OK, you might be extra vigilant when it comes to keeping your phone or computer locked. But hackers are resourceful, and they&rsquo;re very good at discovering unsafe passwords. Once they access your phone, any passwords stored in your note-taking app become vulnerable.&nbsp;
<h2>5. On a Non-Password-Protected Device</h2>
Of all the bad ideas for passwords, storing them on non-password-protected devices is about the worst. You might think that your tablet or laptop never leaves your side. But if your device is ever stolen, you&rsquo;ve given the criminals the easiest possible opportunity to access your saved passwords.&nbsp;
If you&rsquo;re determined to store passwords on a physical device &mdash; which is never a good idea &mdash; make sure the device password is a complex combination of letters, numbers, and symbols. And it should contain at least 12 characters.&nbsp;
<h2>Use TeamPassword for Extra Protection</h2>
Remembering and safely storing a dozen or more passwords isn&rsquo;t a simple task. By locking away all your passwords in a digital vault, you get maximum protection and easy access.&nbsp;
TeamPassword offers a range of <a href="https://www.teampassword.com/security" target="_blank" rel="noopener">security features</a> &mdash; designed to keep your passwords safe. Offering two-step authentication and encryption, this powerful protection system solves the problem of unsafe passwords with ease. Sign up for a <a href="https://app.teampassword.com/dashboard#signup/testimonial" target="_blank" rel="noopener">free trial</a> to see these exciting features for yourself.&nbsp;

What To Do If You Forgot Your Old Facebook Login | TeamPassword

So you think hackers have stolen your password? You're not the only one. 
Perhaps you've noticed strange activity on your email account or frequent pop-ups on your computer. Perhaps it's just a hunch. 
But how can you know&nbsp;for sure?
There are many warning signs that you've been the victim of a data hack:
<ul>
<li>Your device is slower than normal.</li>
<li>You use more data than normal.</li>
<li>Videos take longer to load.</li>
<li>You received an email notification about a password change you didn't make.</li>
<li>An online account no longer accepts your password.</li>
</ul>
However, hackers can steal your passwords and identity&nbsp;without you ever knowing. That's why it's so difficult to tell if you're the victim of a hack.
This guide will help you work out if hackers have stolen your information and tell you how to stop it from happening again.&nbsp;
Prevent hackers from stealing your data by incorporating TeamPassword into your tech stack. This password manager for teams comes with a range of security features like two-step verification and password encryption.&nbsp;<a href="https://app.teampassword.com/dashboard#signup/testimonial" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Sign up for a free trial</a>&nbsp;today.&nbsp;

<h2>Have I Been Hacked? How Do I Know?</h2>
There are various ways to tell whether hackers have access to your information:
<ul>
<li>Look for unusual activity on your account. This activity includes logins to your social media accounts from unfamiliar locations or mass messages sent from your email account.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Look for security emails from account providers that warn about failed login attempts or password changes you didn't make.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Look for changes in performance on the devices, apps, and websites you use. For example, see if videos take longer to buffer than normal.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Look at your browser's password manager (if you use one) and check that nobody has changed these credentials.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
All the above can be a guessing game. You might have a feeling that you're the victim of a hack but don't know for sure. 
Checking a stolen password list like "Have I Been Pwned" clears up some of the confusion. This tool searches across multiple data breaches &mdash; when hackers take stolen passwords and usernames and post them online &mdash; to see if cybercriminals have compromised your personal information. 
Here's how to use this stolen password list:
<ol>
<li>Enter your email address on the main page.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Click "pwned."</li>
<li>The website will search thousands of databases to see if hackers have stolen your personal information.</li>
<li>If you receive the "Oh no &ndash; Pwned!" message, it means hackers have posted sensitive information associated with your email address (passwords, addresses, phone numbers, etc.) somewhere online.</li>
<li>If you receive the "Good news &ndash; no pwnage found!" message, it means the website could not find your information on the internet.&nbsp;</li>
</ol>
Note: Just because the website can't find your data on the internet, it doesn't mean hackers haven't compromised your personal information.

<h2>Which Passwords Did Hackers Steal?</h2>
Establish which passwords hackers stole in a data breach so you can take quick action. Websites like "Have I Been Pwned"&nbsp;won't&nbsp;tell you which passwords are at risk. You'll only learn whether hackers have compromised the data associated with a particular email address. 
Note: Sometimes, hackers might have access to your email address and other personal information but not your password. It's hard to know for sure.&nbsp;
If hackers have access to your data, it's a good idea to change&nbsp;all passwords&nbsp;associated with the compromised email address. If you use your email address for several online accounts, change the passwords for these services. Updating these passwords might take you a while, and remembering the new passwords leads to additional problems. (Keep reading to find a solution.)
Here are some other tips:
<ul>
<li>When choosing new passwords, use combinations of lowercase letters, uppercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Passwords that use all these elements are stronger than those that don't.</li>
<li>Don't write your passwords down because this increases the risk of identity theft.&nbsp;&nbsp;</li>
<li>Don't tell anyone your new passwords.</li>
</ul>

<h2>How Common Is a Data Hack?</h2>
More common than you think. Hackers were responsible for more than 4,000 attacks every day in 2020, and the total number of compromised records exceeded 37 billion. That's a 141% increase from 2019. Much of this compromised data appears on the dark web, where cybercriminals use it to facilitate illegal activities such as identity theft and money laundering.&nbsp;
If you have been the subject of a data hack, you are not alone. However, it's important to act quickly to prevent hackers from accessing your personal or financial accounts.&nbsp;
There are other types of cybercrime to consider. Cybercriminals use techniques like phishing, where they impersonate people online and trick victims into handing over their personal information. Phishing now accounts for more than 80% of all cybersecurity incidents, and criminals steal $17,700 every minute in these attacks.&nbsp;

<h2>What Kind of Information Do Hackers Steal?</h2>
Hackers steal all kinds of personal and financial information:
<ul>
<li>Names</li>
<li>Email addresses</li>
<li>Usernames</li>
<li>Passwords</li>
<li>Addresses</li>
<li>Phone numbers</li>
<li>Bank account details</li>
<li>Credit card numbers</li>
<li>Social Security numbers</li>
<li>Insurance information&nbsp;</li>
<li>IRS information</li>
<li>Photos</li>
<li>Private message</li>
<li>SMS messages</li>
</ul>
Nothing is off-limits for hackers, and these criminals go to great lengths to steal your data. Once they have access to the information above, hackers can transfer money from your bank accounts, use your identity to apply for financing, and damage your credit file.&nbsp;

<h2>Have I Been Hacked? How to Stay Safe.</h2>
There are several ways to improve online security and prevent hackers from accessing your personal information:
<ul>
<li>Use the latest security software and apps when using devices and browsing the internet.</li>
<li>Carry out regular risk assessments where you evaluate your security software.</li>
<li>Back up personal data to a reputable cloud service instead of keeping it on your device.&nbsp;</li>
<li>Don't share personal information with other people.</li>
<li>Create a security management strategy for your organization and share it with all team members.&nbsp;</li>
</ul>
Using a password manager is another way to stay safe online. The best ones encrypt your online passwords so hackers can't access these credentials, and you can keep passwords in a secure cloud-based vault and not have to remember them. There are various password managers online, including free ones available through most internet browsers, but not all tools are the same.&nbsp;
