From the experts at McAfee.

“Passwords are still the main line of defence for the majority of apps and devices we use daily,” he said. “Yet a third of people rely on the same three passwords for every account they’re signed up to. This is a high-risk strategy.
“Just think, if you use the same password for email, social media and online shopping for example, a cybercriminal only needs to get their hands on the password once to potentially gain access to private and even financial information.”
