The Passwords Mini-series is really finished…

…or is it?

A Password Primer

The series started off with a look at the password mistakes many users make, that the hackers are aware of and exploit when they are trying to brute your passwords. It then went onto a number of specific password problems, including how to securely remember all these passwords you need. The series finished, with part 8, over on Smart Thinking Solutions with a look at what password fatigue is and how to deal with it.
