A password with a good mix of different types of characters (lowercase, uppercase, number, symbol) and between 8-14 characters is secure and sufficient for a website admin area or email account password. Instead of generating a bunch of letters, numbers, and symbols, you could even customize it by thinking of a short phrase like “Jack and Jill” and creating a password from it with a mix of uppercase letters, lowercase letters, and symbols (such as [email protected]!LL). This will help you recall your password much better in the future. If you find yourself with numerous complex passwords that are difficult to remember, consider using a service like LastPass.
