Start with unique strong passwords
The biggest account safety improvement is using unique, strong passwords for every account. A password generator can create unpredictable values, while a strength checker helps explain why length and variety matter.
Generated passwords should be stored in a trusted password manager or another secure system you control. Do not reuse generated passwords across accounts.
- Use long unique passwords instead of memorable reused ones.
- Check password strength without sending the password to a server.
- Turn on multi-factor authentication where available.
Handle tokens and snippets carefully
Developers and admins often handle JWTs, hashes, encrypted snippets, and secret-looking values. Decoding or formatting can help you inspect structure, but it does not prove that a token is safe or valid.
Before sharing screenshots, logs, or examples, remove secrets, ids, emails, and production values. Treat tokens like passwords unless you know they are harmless examples.
