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
 ;    ; &;  ( ) _ +;  =;       :  ; ' <; >;? , . /).
