Choosing a good password

You need to pick a password which you can easily remember, but which can't easily be guessed.

Some ideas:

  • Choose two words, with a number in between. For example: hospital7food
  • Use the initial letters of a favourite phrase or song lyric. For example: "I get no kick from champagne" would become "ignkfc"
  • Ideally, a mixture of letters and numbers is more secure than letters only
  • Please don't use the word "password"!
  • Use a password manager to create and store a strong password
