Keeping your information secure using difficult passwords is a great way to ensure your information will not get into the hands of the wrong people.  According to BBC News, WordPress is one of the latest websites to have a security breach.  “Wordpress has been attacked by a botnet of ‘tens of thousands’ of individual computers since last week, according to server hosters Cloudflare and Hostgator.  The botnet targets WordPress users with the username “admin”, trying thousands of possible passwords.”
