WHAT YOU WILL LEARN
Learning objectives
- Never reuse an important password.
The useful habit
Use a long, unique credential for each service. A password manager can generate unpredictable passwords so one compromised service does not expose a reused credential elsewhere.
Apply it
A shopping-site breach should not unlock work email because those accounts use different passwords.
