There are some ways that you can protect yourself from electronic information theft by creating stronger passwords. Avoid using certain passwords such as those that reveal your name or email address, personal information or consecutive numbers and words from the dictionary. These examples are easier for hackers to find. Use a mixture of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers and symbols. Longer passwords are also more difficult to hack. Finally, store passwords in a safe place. there are even apps that can manage your passwords and encrypt them for more safety.
