Email accounts aren’t the only ones which need strong, unique passwords.

 

Every account you have should use a password that’s hard to guess, and isn’t used anywhere else.

 

At a minimum, you need a strong, unique password for your email addresses, as well as anything to do with work or money.

 

This means any bank accounts you have, or accounts you use in your job.

Creating unique passwords for your important accounts will make you much safer online.
