Thousands of data breaches affecting millions of individuals are reported each year, yet one still hears the same stories about Internet users having the same passwords for multiple sites.

Whether a password is used for a social media account, an online shopping portal or an online banking website, it should be a) unique, b) difficult to guess, and c) changed frequently. To maintain your Internet privacy, only ever provide the minimum amount of information necessary and only if you have complete confidence in the website you are providing it to.
