Having separate passwords for each online account helps to limit your risk. Should a security breach occur, your other accounts remain safe. |
|
|
|
Add an extra layer of protection with a strong password. Use a mix of letters, numbers and symbols that aren’t linked to your personal information (e.g. NRIC, DOB, etc.). |
