The <strong>password quality meter</strong> gives you a + rough idea of the quality of your password as you type it based on factors + such as length and the use of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, + and symbols. It does not guarantee, however, that no one will be able to + guess your password.</p> + +<p>For further guidelines, see <a href="#choosing_a_good_password">Choosing + a Good Password</a>.</p> + +<p>It's also important to record your master password in a safe + place—and <strong>not</strong> anywhere that's easily accessible + to someone else.

For details, see + <a href="#change_master_password">Change Master Password</a>.</p> + +<p>Resetting your master password is a last resort that you should use only if + you are absolutely sure you've forgotten it. The seriousness of the + situation depends on how much personal data your forgotten master password + protects.</p> + +<p>Resetting your master password does not create a new password. Instead, it + removes all the data your old master password protects. You will be asked to + specify a new master password the next time the browser needs to store + personal information.</p> + +<p>After you reset your master password, you may also want to re-save personal + information that you want to have prefilled in the future. For example, as + you browse you may want Password Manager to save website and email passwords + again.In addition, any personal certificates associated with the software + security device will be permanently erased and you will need to apply for new + ones.</p> + +<p><strong>Note for smart card users</strong>: Each smart card has its own + master password. The master password for a smart card protects only the data + on that smart card (such as personal certificates). You can normally change + the master password for a smart card (assuming that you remember it), but you + cannot reset it.</p> + +<h2 id="choosing_a_good_password">Choosing a Good Password</h2> + +<p>Choosing a good password will help in keeping your personal information + safe and private. To improve the security of your password, follow some + or all of these suggestions:</p> + +<ul> + <li>Special and punctuation characters (*!$+) mixed with letters and + numbers.</li> + <li>Mixed upper and lower-case letters—putting capitals in random + locations throughout a password is effective.</li> + <li>Nonsense words that aren't found in dictionaries but are easy to + pronounce.</li> + <li>Eight or more characters.</li> +</ul> + +<p>You should avoid personal information that could be guessed. So the + following common items should be avoided:</p> + +<ul> + <li>Personal or family names, your initials or birthdays.</li> + <li>Your social security number.</li> + <li>Names of pets or famous places.</li> + <li>Phone numbers or addresses.</li> + <li>Words from any kind of dictionary.</li> + <li>Your username, login name or computer's name.</li> + <li>Repetition of the same letter or symbol.</li> + <li>Sequences of keyboard keys, such as <q>12345</q> or <q>qwerty</q>.</li> + <li>Any minor modification of the above, such as appending a character to the + end of your name or spelling backwards.</li> +</ul> + +<p>A good way to choose a secure but easily remembered password is to use the + first character of each word in a phrase. For instance, <q>StNh*nbsS</q> + stands for <q>Surfing the Net has never been so Suite</q>; the asterisk in + the middle is included for increased security. (Don't use this + password!)</p> + +<p>To further protect your personal data, you are advised to follow these + simple rules:</p> + +<ul> + <li>Never give the password out to anyone.</li> + <li>If someone has learnt your password, change it immediately.</li> + <li>Every few months, change your password.</li> + <li>Choose a password you can remember so you don't have to write it + down.</li> + <li>Avoid letting people observe you typing your password.</li> +</ul> + +<p>©right.string;</p> + +</body> +</html> |
