This is scary
- 75% of consumers use the same exact password for multiple accounts
- Most people haven’t changed that duplicate password in over five years.
How can you make sure your online accounts are safe?
First, I use LastPass on my phone and computer to keep all of my passwords, unique and strong. 1Password is a highly rated app as well.
Second, for several key services (Gmail, Dropbox, Evernote, and Lastpass), I’ve enabled Two Factor authentication, so someone would have to have my phone to get a text or authenticate even if they hacked my password.
