Statistics show that a dedicated hacker can decode a simple password in under three minutes. To protect your Way We Do account and all of the personal information it contains, we recommend you follow these password selection guidelines.

  • Your password should be more than ten characters long.

  • For maximum effectiveness, it should contain a mix of numbers, letters and special characters.
    Your password should not contain any personally identifying information (i.e. names, birth dates, anniversaries, etc.)

  • One way to create a memorable password that is nearly impossible to crack is to start with a favourite quote or saying and change it.

For example, you could start with this quote, "Life is 10 percent what you make it, and 90 percent how you take it" - Irving Berlin

Change some of the letters or words into numbers and symbols and you end up with a very hard to guess password: L1f3is10%WhatYouMak3of1t&90%HowUTak3it
