All passwords are not created equally and a weak password could be easy to hack or crack. A strong password can protect against hacker attacks and social engineering by consisting of more characters than usual and utilizing different cases, symbols and numbers. By breaking up whole words a password could become more secure as well as utilizing both case types. For example the password “authentication” could be cracked fairly easily, however the password “Auth3nticati0n$” would be extremely difficult to hack, crack or figure out through personal information making it a strong password.
