When it comes to passwords, long and complex are best. Make sure they are unique for each account and at least 12 characters long. It helps to think of a random phrase. Example Bob Eats motor oil for breakfast could become B0bE@t$0il88!! #Becybersmart #cybersecurityawarnessmonth

Default Passwords are NOT secure. Put cybersecurity first and secure all internet-connected devices before using them.
