is it worth keeping the same pass words,??

[alfred]

We are regularly asked to check that our passwords are strong and that a possible hacker would have to spend a lot of time trying to crack that  password ,


it seems that many people keep the same password for almost every thing
that's on their computer, and its evidently risky if you do,


every so often i change mine to ensure I'm reasonably safe, but of course are we really,?? so what else can be done to safe guard our protection when on  surfing on the w.w.web

If you do buy online  then your most important password is your email. It that gets hacked then the first step is to change its password.

Next find all the shops used from their emails about what is coming and use the lost password link to change all the shop logins. Then you can be generosity itself sending gifts to pickup points and the like? Amazon lockers are good. Especially when some deliveries are same day.
