Minecraft players are famous for their collection and storage of many things. This is not counting what structures and mechanisms they create. Anyone, even a novice player, will be annoyed to lose everything that he has. This can happen due to a ban on the server or griffing (sabotage), but most often there is a loss of access to the character. Fraudsters and hackers use different methods to find out or guess passwords to players' accounts and assign them to themselves. Of course, the ban and griefers can be avoided by playing honestly and following the safety rules, but with the intruders, things are more serious.
Many users often create knowingly simple and weak passwords that hackers can easily guess, which is what they do. To avoid a similar situation you should change your password in Minecraft.
Password requirements
Password requirements in Mine are no different from any other services. There are intruders everywhere, so you have to come up with complex combinations. Below is a short list with specific tips for creating a good secret combination:
- You should not use popular and common combinations of characters, such as "qwerty", "159753", "qazwsx", etc., attackers have known about them for a long time, and if you use such a combination, the chances of losing your account are very high.
- The key must be easy to remember so that you can remember it without any problems. A complex key is good, but what's the point if the user himself cannot remember it.
- Besides the fact that the key must be light, it shouldn't be short... Recommended key length is from 10 to 16 characters. This will be optimally hard to break and easy enough to remember on your own.
- When creating a combination, it should be used as numbers and letters different register. You need to understand that the keys "dima178" and "DiMA178" are different passwords and the second is an order of magnitude more complicated.
- Do not use the same secret combination on different services. From the point of view of memorization, this is convenient, but there is a high probability that if one account is hacked, you will lose all the others.
After carefully reading all the tips, you can proceed to changing your password in Minecraft.
