How would we celebrate World Password Day? By changing our passwords?

Yeah, that's right.  :orly:



WORLD PASSWORD DAY

The Registrar of National Day Calendar has designated the first Thursday of May of each year as World Password Day.

World Password Day is a celebration to promote better password habits. Passwords are critical gatekeepers to our digital identities, allowing us to access online shopping, dating, banking, social media, private work and life communications.

Get tips to fortify your password habits on the official World Password Day website, PasswordDay.org.

HOW TO OBSERVE
Celebrate World Password Day by visiting PasswordDay.org and taking the #WorldPasswordDay pledge, sharing a password tip on social media, changing an old password to a long, strong one or by turning on two-factor authentication for your important accounts.

HISTORY
Security researcher Mark Burnett first encouraged people to have a “password day,” where they update important passwords in his 2005 book Perfect Passwords.  Inspired by his idea, Intel Security took the initiative to declare the first Thursday in May World Password Day in May 2013.  Submitted by Big Monocle in 2016, Password Day is meant to create awareness of the need for good password security.

I think I should post a day ahead, because I usually post at night and by then the day is over and it's already the next day for some people here.  :orly:

Hey, guys. Beer pong and naked gardening.  :zoinks:

Should do my hair up like Princess Leia as a tribute to StarWars Day, garden naked, play beer pong then wrap it all up by celebrating HerbDay.

I like these holidays.  :zoinks:

I like these holidays too. No pants day was officially over a few minutes ago, but I'm still celebrating.  :zoinks: I'm also looking forward to paying my respects to some fried chicken.  :zoinks:

Also heard about no pants day. Didn't feel like celebrating that one right there on the spot.

It' s too cold for naked gardening. That cold that petite and proud would become inverted and sad.

I'll stick with Remembrance Day.
Liberation Day tomorrow. They belong together.
