Why should I worry about this?
Advice website Get Safe Online advise that choosing a secure password means choosing one that Contains a mix of upper and lower case letters, numbers and keyboard symbols, and that you must use different passwords for different services. In particular have a unique password for banking sites. If you use the same password for every site, a hacker only has to break it once to have access to everything.
Why is this so difficult to protect against?
Whilst this is great advice and sounds simple in practice, how do you manage to come up with, and remember all those strong passwords? You could use a password vault like the ones offered in many commercial virus scanners, but then your passwords may not be with you at work, and if the vault is compromised then all of your passwords will be too.
