Raise your virtual hand if you’ve had it with passwords ✋. In all honesty, if I could raise three hands, I would – and I’ve got a hunch I’m not alone! Follow along as I dig into the state of passwords and a few ways to make them less of a headache. 1/
First, let’s get a few facts straight when it comes to #passwords. I’m busting the top 3 password myths to help you stay safe online. 2/
Myth #1: Never write down your password.
This is legacy advice from when computers lived at the office & the threat was Pat in the cube next door. But with personal devices & remote hackers, memorized passwords leads to re-use, which is way worse for overall security. 3/

The clock is ticking, and it'll happen again unless we prepare. #FairElections
2/ There appear to be two main avenues requiring active defenses: #cybersecurity / hacking, and disinformation / #FakeNews
