Why Change your Password Every 3 Months?

At work, you’re probably required to change your password every 3 months or so.

Why? To restrict access.

It’s to kick out an attacker that may already be inside your system.

That’s it; simple and logical eh.

Because remember the golden rule – it’s not IF you’re compromised, it’s WHEN (more here)

Small business owners – it’s good practice to do this at least once every 3 months, ideally more. And when you do, be mindful of this sad stat – the more often employees are required to change passwords, the higher the chance it will be both written down, and super crappy, example: Summer2014 and Winter2015

A good password looks like this:
M{c^TJ.`?W@Y?I6i1@O%yq4?o

Blog tag = passwords

Refresh VS Redesign – What’s the Difference

Sounds similar, but there’s a huge difference:

Refresh = slightly updated from the previous model year
Redesign = all-new from the ground up

How to know which it is? Use the 5-year Test – typically, a vehicle is redesigned once every five years.

Read it online at Autonet.

Use this to your advantage when shopping, because all-new doesn’t mean it’s all-better (see last 3 paragraphs)

Favourite line:

Say to the salesman: Next year the car is being redesigned, so who is going to want this year’s model? It’s about to become outdated, so give me a better price!
