Play ‘Does the Password Pass?’ and test your skills by choosing the most secure password from the options below.

Question: John Smith was born on August 15th, 1990, and is signing up for a MyLotto account so he can play Lotto NZ games online. If he's lucky enough to be a big winner the first thing he would do is head off on a world tour starting in Spain.

From the above details guess what John’s most secure password would be?

W0rld7our$pain – Correct!

This is the most secure password for John as it is complex and unpredictable. The length provides additional security and despite its complexity it uses a phrase that is memorable.

John1990 - Incorrect!

This password uses personal information that is easy to find and is guessable with a lack of complexity.

Password123 – Incorrect!

This password is too simple and predictable. It is commonly used, lacks complexity and is easily guessable.

Scams are designed to trick you into giving away your personal information.

While hackers might use fake emails, messages and phone calls, they can also try and hack your password to gain access to your accounts. That’s why having a password that’s long, strong and unique is the key to keeping your personal information safe and secure.
