So, what to do, what to do?

from: yourwebsiteengieer.com

Create unique passwords for every online account that

contain numbers, letters and symbols

Don’t use passwords that have dictionary words

Don’t use personal information like birthdays or phone

numbers

Avoid making passwords that have adjacent keyboard

combinations, like qwerty or asdfqwer

Never use your email password for any other online

accounts

2FA

Wikipedia defines Two-factor authentication provides

unambiguous identification of users by means of the combination

of two different components. These components may be

something that the user knows, something that the user possesses

or something that is inseparable from the user. A good example

from everyday life is the withdrawing of money from a cash

machine. Only the correct combination of a bank card (something

that the user possesses) and a PIN (personal identification

number, i.e. something that the user knows) allows the transaction

to be carried out.
