The Importance of Strong Passwords & How to Generate Them | Free Online Tool

In an era of increasing cyber threats, your password is the first line of defense. A weak password is like leaving your front door unlocked. This article explains why you need strong passwords and how the **TekToolHub Password Generator** can help.

What Makes a Password Strong?

A strong password should be:

• **Long:** At least 12 characters, but 16+ is better.
• **Complex:** A mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols.
• **Random:** Avoid common words, birthdays, or patterns (like "123456").
• **Unique:** Never reuse passwords across different sites.
