Making passwords more difficult to crack

If the worst happens and your computer is stolen or lost, there is still hope that your personal data is not accessible if the password is difficult to crack. A mixture of, numbers, letters, and symbols is considered the most secure – but only if passwords and keys are not stored on the hard disk. For this reason it is better if the computer prompts for a password before booting – electronic security solutions enable this. This makes it very difficult for an unauthorized user to access the operating system or saved data.
