In our course we teach the learner to choose an easy to remember, but hard to guess password and suggest that a password such as your favorite football team would be a good choice. We then teach them how to apply a couple easy to follow rules..after discussing and showing them an example. Ex: New York Giants.pretty easy to remember, huh? Now apply the rules which were discussed an you come up with something like: Ny_G1@nts At least 8 characters long, and a mix of cap and non-cap letters, numbers and special characters.
