9.4 Password

Default passwords are often easily cracked. So in your own interest do not use common names as

password. E.g. the name of you company, month, weekday or personal names. Most password hacking

software use word databases for the attack. Even common word and number combination are included.
E.g. “john15”, “eva55”, “KCS1” etc.

Also the storage of the password is significant so it is understandable that any password written on the back

of the keyboard is not more secure than a blank one.

Recommended: use alphanumeric combinations, upper and lower cases and special characters. So the risk

of just guessing the password is low.

E.g. “NoA4ymF” what has the meaning of “No Access four you my Friend”
