The secret life of passwords

A look into why we choose the password we choose and what this reveals about us. A lot than you might think. If you ignore password managers  – which combat linking the password to the individual by randomizing it, a password is more than a secrete to our private life indeed. It often reflects who we are, our attitudes, circumstances, favorite things and places.

How do you disassociate most of your password from who you are? Use a password manager and use one that offers two factor authentication.
