Of the societal issues in Chapter 25, I chose to talk to about Security,
specifically about passwords. I chose this issue because this is what I deal
with on a regular basis as I am a Security Administrator for an Insurance
Company. Having a strong password is critical as it stores information that is
pertinent to you that you may not want other people to see. The simplest form
of a password should be alphanumeric, at least 8 characters in length and mixed
with lower and uppercase. The password can be a phrase of a saying that's
simple for you to remember, but not anyone else.
You can also visit this website
http://www.microsoft.com/athome/security/privacy/password.mspx as it will give
you more details as how to pick a strong password.
