Answer to Question 1

One technique for creating memorable, strong passwords is to base them on the first
letter of the words in a phrase. The phrase could be the title of a song or the first line of a poem
or one based on some fact about one's life. For example, one can take the phrase, I was born in
Rome, New York, before 1990. Using the first letters from that phrase and substituting the
character for the word before, one can create the password IwbiR,NY<1990.

Answer to Question 2

The characteristics of a strong password are:
1. It should have 10 or more characters, 12 is even better.
2. It should not contain one's user name, real name, or company name.
3. It should not contain a complete dictionary word in any language.
4. It should be different from the previous passwords the user has used.
5. It should contain both upper- and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters (such as
 ;    ; &;  ( ) _ +;  =;       :  ; ' <; >;? , . /).

Did you know?

Although the Roman numeral for the number 4 has always been taught to have been "IV," according to historians, the ancient Romans probably used "IIII" most of the time. This is partially backed up by the fact that early grandfather clocks displayed IIII for the number 4 instead of IV. Early clockmakers apparently thought that the IIII balanced out the VIII (used for the number 8) on the clock face and that it just looked better.
