Phishing at Hotmail, GMail, Yahoo! Mail, etc.

My friend, Alun Jones, Microsoft Security MVP,  posted a nice reminder of the basic rules of dealing with everyday passwords.

 

1. Don’t use the same password everywhere.
   
2. Write down some of your passwords.
   
3. Consider what passwords should be accessible to others.
   
4. Plan to change your passwords.
   
5. Change your passwords often enough, but not too often.
