How long my password should be to ensure better protection?
Each character you add to your password length increases its security. Your passwords should be 12 or more characters in length. The more characters your password contains, the more difficult it can be to guess.
Password length is even more important than using different additional characters. E.g. if you use standard English alphabet (A-Z, a-z) and digits (0-9) - total 62 characters, increasing password length from 6 to 8 characters causes the number of possible passwords will be increased in 3844 times. While 18 additional special characters that can be used for creating passwords (total 80 characters) if password length is 6 characters, will increase the number of possible passwords only in about 4.6 times.
