In addition, it may be wise for you to get yourself a password manager particularly if you have a number of logins and passwords that you need to manage. Personally I use 1Password, however there are many to select from. Having a tool like this is invaluable because if you are like many of us and have a lot of information to remember you need a reliable tool to help you.
