Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Make passwords that are hard to guess but easy to remember. Some systems will even let you use spaces: “bread and butter yum”. Avoid single words, or a word preceded or followed by a single number (e.g. Password1). Hackers will use dictionaries of words and commonly used passwords to guess your password.

Detailed explanation-2: -Use longer passwords Adding numbers, symbols, upper and lowercase letters to the password makes it very difficult to brute force. Thus having a long, complex password is more secure. Try to make your passwords a minimum of 12 characters and spice them up with numbers, symbols, and mixed-case letters.

Detailed explanation-3: –Do not choose passwords based upon details that may not be as confidential as you’d expect, such as your birth date, your Social Security or phone number, or names of family members.-Do not use words that can be found in the dictionary.
