Using a Strong Password

So, whether you are a casual social media user or the owner of a successful website, equipping yourself with knowledge on strong passwords and their uses will allow you to prevent your information from being targeted. This course will teach you what to look out for and how to protect yourself.

About this course

We all love films about hacking. Like when a detective is trying to get access to a secret computer and manages to crack the code just before the criminal comes through the door. These films can be exciting. But did you know, hacking isn’t just about glamorous cases like taking over government schemes or robbing banks? Usually, it’s pretty run-of-the-mill stuff like accessing your email or your online shopping account.

Engaging the learner

These days, having the ability to create a strong password is important to anyone who uses the internet. So, making the course engaging should have been a doddle, right? Well, just to make sure, we gave this course a James Bond theme and pitted our hero against a very recognisable bad guy. Because everyone loves to see a super spy beat an evil megalomaniac.

This course wouldn’t be much use if we didn’t show you examples, though. So… we did. There are detailed examples of password creation systems that you can use yourself. Not only that, we also explain how you can remember them. Finally, there’s a workbook and some take away tasks to download that’ll help you remember what you’ve learned and help you develop your password-making skills even further.
