With all the media attention the subject receives, you're probably well aware of the importance of strong passwords when it comes to Internet security. However, even if you know all the tips for creating stronger passwords how can you be sure that yours are strong enough? When the site that asks you to create a password also offers their own password strength checking tool, it's easy, but what about for those other times?
Fact is, you can test the strength of your passwords anytime, even right now, by simply visiting the online Password Checker from Microsoft.com. Just type in the password you want to test and you'll automatically receive a strength rating on screen-either weak, medium, strong or best. Obviously you want to shoot for a reading of strong or best!
Not sure if that password you've been using is up to speed? Microsoft's Password Checker will let you know!
