## Why Most Passwords Fail
The average person reuses 8 passwords across 90+ accounts. When one service gets breached, attackers try those credentials everywhere — credential stuffing.
## What Makes a Strong Password?
**Length:** At least 16 characters.
**Randomness:** No dictionary words, names, dates, or patterns.
**Uniqueness:** Different password for every account.
