# Pilih sandi yang aman

Make your passwords easy enough for you to remember, but very difficult for others (including computer programs) to guess.

Choosing a good password will help to keep your computer safe. If your password is easy to guess, someone may figure it out and gain access to your personal information.

People could even use computers to systematically try to guess your password, so even one that would be difficult for a human to guess might be extremely easy for a computer program to crack. Here are some tips for choosing a good password:

Use a mixture of upper-case and lower-case letters, numbers, symbols and spaces in the password. This makes it more difficult to guess; there are more symbols from which to choose, meaning more possible passwords that someone would have to check when trying to guess yours.

Sebuah metode yang baik untuk memilih sandi adalah untuk mengambil huruf pertama dari setiap kata dalam frase yang Anda ingat. Ungkapan bisa menjadi nama sebuah film, buku, lagu atau album. Sebagai contoh, "Flatland: A Romance of Many Dimensions" akan menjadi F:ARoMD atau faromd atau f: aromd.

Make your password as long as possible. The more characters it contains, the longer it should take for a person or computer to guess it.

Do not use any words that appear in a standard dictionary in any language. Password crackers will try these first. The most common password is "password" – people can guess passwords like this very quickly!

Do not use any personal information such as a date, license plate number, or any family member's name.

Jangan memakai kata benda apapun.

Pilih suatu sandi yang dapat diketikkan dengan cepat, untuk mengurangi kesempatan bagi seseorang menebak apa yang telah Anda ketikkan apabila mereka mengamati Anda.

Jangan pernah menuliskan sandi Anda dimanapun. Mereka dapat dengan mudah ditemukan!

Gunakan sandi lain untuk akun hal-hal yang berbeda.

Gunakan sandi lain untuk akun yang berbeda.

Bila Anda memakai sandi yang sama bagi semua akun Anda, siapapun yang menebaknya akan dapat mengakses semua akun Anda seketika.

It can be difficult to remember lots of passwords, however. Though not as secure as using a different passwords for everything, it may be easier to use the same one for things that do not matter (like websites), and different ones for important things (like your online banking account and your email).

Ubah sandi Anda secara reguler.
