Cyber Safety Worksheet: Passphrases
Stay safe (Picture three words): Pick 3 or 4 random words that do not belong together (not names, mottos or quotes). Add capitals and a digit or symbol: Kite-River-Lamp47. One password per account; keep it in your head (a parent may keep a copy); change it if it leaks; turn on two-step login.
