Passwords and security Make it harder for hackers to crack your passwords by increasing their length.
I accept to the point mentioned by sumit and it is absolutely correct if you increase the password length and also use alpa numeric
I agree with you, it is very tough to hack the password which contains special symbols and alphanumerics.
Now a days hacking has become a very common thing.I don't know how they can really handle this situation effectively.Most of the people have their passwords containing their son's name,wife's name,date of birth etc.,It may also be a reason to crack passwords easily.
Another issue is people use the same password for multiple tasks...probably thats why security is at risk...
If the password contains special symbols and alpha numerics, there will be difficulty in hacking the password.
There are both advantages and disadvantages of hacking.
hacking the password of others is disadvantage.
If some one forget password and there is something important in the main, then the hacking tricks are used over there . this is advantage
I think is is better to use some rare passwords which are not easy to be hacked..however i think technology is developing anything can be hacked.
