Passwords and Online Retailers
January 29, 2014
Dashlane has recently released results of its survey that cover popular e-commerce sites security practices:
62% of Websites do not require their users to choose passwords that use both letters and numbers.
73% of the sites approve passwords that are less than six characters long.
61% of the Websites don’t even advise their members or users to create stronger passwords during their sign-in processes.
About 93% of the Websites do not provide meters to detect strength of passwords in their sign-up pages.
Summary – take my advise on creating passwords, and make it YOUR responsibility to stay secure.
