Oh no! I lost my password!
Almost all websites require you to create a user account and password. The problem is most people can’t memorize multiple passwords, so they resort to using a single password everywhere. This of course can leave you vulnerable to identity theft and other issues. October is National Cybersecurity Awareness Month, but don’t worry, we have a solution to your scary password situation.
