Detailed explanation-1: -A strong password must be at least 8 characters long. It should not contain any of your personal information-specifically, your real name, username or your company name. It must be very unique from your previously used passwords. It should not contain any word spelled completely.
Detailed explanation-2: -A strong password is: At least 12 characters long but 14 or more is better. A combination of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols. Not a word that can be found in a dictionary or the name of a person, character, product, or organization.
