Kinda scared the crap out of me yesterday. I got an email from our head honcho IT guy saying somebody at my firm had their identity stolen and the bad guys cleaned out their 401k account. He strongly recommended setting up 2 step authentication with a cell phone to receive texts.

I had naively though that getting money out of a 401k was a huge job, with lots of forms to fill out and stuff, so I was never all that concerned about security. So I checked mine, and saw that my future was still safe. The funds were still there.

So now today I'm setting up the two-step authentication on all my various accounts and changing all the passwords to more secure ones. It's a real pain in the ass, but I guess it's smart in this day and age.

Yes, I went thru that a year or so ago sort of thing, and it is a pain.

But the state-of-the-art people who are involved with passwords are clear.
... an 8 or 10 character password just doesn't cut it anymore.
And even some big banks are behind times in their sign-on setups

Also, most people cannot create a password that the hackers can't figure out whenever they want.
It takes a minimum of 12 - 14 random characters to be
non-hackable with the speeds of today's hackers' computers.

But that is almost impossible and very inconvenient for the human brain.
Thus, "password managers" are becoming the convenient and secure way to go.

I changed over to a password manager that has an excellent reputation,
is cross-platform, automatically updates between all of your home, work, and cellphone
computers, ipads, etc. and is versatile, e.g., making cell-phone (digital) payments.
Everything is stored as encrypted data, on your own equipment, not the cloud or theirs.

Google "1P" or send me a PM if you'd like to know more about my experience with it.

The times, they are a-changing.
