Password Reflection

     I think good password would require one word like PINEAPPLE and change it to PiNeApPlE OR P1n3ApP13. One of the passwords that was not safe to use was my dog’s name and the day we got him, I changed that password immidiatley. Some passwords people used on that website were: PASSWORD, SARAH2004 (their name and birthdate), SPOT123 (pet’s name and random number), SULLIVAN HEIGHTS (their school name), MONICA2004  (their moms name and birthday). I learned that a password that usually repeat can be cracked in one day, I instantly changed that. I think I’ll try to further complicate my passwords with numbers and symbols and capital letters.
