You want your staff to watch this video. Because their weak passwords put your business at risk.
3 in 4 people use passwords so weak, they are very easily hacked. We’re talking:

- Pet names, children’ names, spouse’s names
- Football teams, favourite player, etc

We’ve got a brand new educational video on password security. You can watch it right now.
