strong password

Unguessable access code

A strong password is one that resists guessing and cracking attempts—typically long, unpredictable, and mixing character types.

Security guidelines have evolved from complex strings like Tr0ub4dor&3 toward longer passphrases that are easier to remember: correct horse battery staple.

A strong password appears in no dictionary and on no list of previously leaked credentials.
