According to a report by research company Secure Link, about 80% of hacking are caused by weak and simple passwords.  Let us tell you that in the year 2017, most accounts were hacked due to weak passwords.  The report claimed that having the same password on different platforms increases the risk of hacking.  However, the report also indicates that the trend of keeping a simple password has not changed much yet.  People still keep weak passwords.

According to the report, it is the easiest way for hackers to steal information from users from a phishing attack.  Hackers steal users' personal details like username and password.  This proves to be the easiest method for hackers.  Also, if the administrator does not use different passwords on different platforms such as professional and personal, then the risk of the account getting hacked increases.

Do not use the same password on different platforms for fear of forgetting the password.  Do not make your name or date of birth a password.  In addition to the alphabet in the password, also include numeric digits and special characters.  Apart from this, put two-step or multi-factor authentication in the account.  To protect your online identity, your password should be changed from time to time.  Never use the same password again.  To protect your online identity, your password should be changed from time to time.  Never use the same password again.
