The police department of Uttar Pradesh has come up with a unique way to deliver an important message about using strong passwords.
In today’s world where everything is digital, having a strong password is a must to protect yourself from hackers and phishing software. But even after knowing the importance of cyber fraud protection, we often don’t make a real effort to think of a safe combination for our apps and systems.
Perhaps this is the reason why the UP Police thought of a unique way of taking the message home.
Take a look at his Instagram post below:
The Uttar Pradesh Police Department used a football match video to highlight the importance of using strong passwords. In the clip, a player marked “hacker” is seen kicking a football into the net. However, a goalkeeper, marked as a “strong password”, skillfully performs a backflip and blocks the goal.
In the caption, UP Police wrote, “Don’t let hackers score against you! Somersault as the goalkeeper of your accounts with a strong password is your way out of cybercriminals’ attack.”
