It's your responsibility to protect your passwords so that other people cannot have access to your private files and e-mails. Please convey the message to your children that their password(s) should not be easy to guess (eg. John should not use "John" as his password). Their birthday, telephone numbers, pet's name and the word "password" are also bad choices for password selection.
Here's a tip for you and your children: you may try an alphanumeric password, which is a password with letters and numbers in combination. It's safer, but not harder to remember, than a password with only numbers or letters (eg. "say10cheese" or "a1b2c3d4").
Do not write the password onto a piece of paper. Disabling the "remember password" function on the Internet browser can prevent any unauthorized access to your Internet account, and, of course, remember to modify your passwords periodically. |
