With so many of us spending time online, it’s more important than ever we protect our accounts.

Create stronger passwords with three random words. Find out how you can stay Cyber Aware at https://www.ncsc.gov.uk/cyberaware/home

If a hacker gets into your email, they could:

  • reset your other account passwords
  • access information you have saved about yourself or your business

Your email password should be strong and different to all your other passwords. This will make it harder to crack or guess.

Using 3 random words is a good way to create a strong, unique password that you will remember.

You should also protect your other important accounts, such as banking or social media.
