Do you use a different password for your work and personal accounts?

[Not Just Computers @notjustcomputer]

@debrabride1 @superdrug We agree @superdrug should have expected a higher than usual demand on the site and ensured the servers had enough resources to handle the load and they failed everyone on that front.

[Not Just Computers @notjustcomputer]

Well done to @superdrug for the information provided, the important thing to note is they suspect the credentials where gained from another site that was compromised, so you not only need to change your @superdrug password but other also! #ChangeYouPassword #NJCCyberSecurity

[Not Just Computers @notjustcomputer]

@debrabride1 @superdrug Yes @superdrug have issued the statement to comply with GDPR, but the information provided is very well presented and clear, we are pointing out that if you use the same password (as indicated) you need to change passwords elsewhere also.

[Not Just Computers @notjustcomputer]

Do you use the same password for all your online services?

If you do then if one site gets compromised you need to change your password everywhere!

Here's a simple way to create and remember passwords.
