Seniors Better at Picking Passwords

The over 55 set does twice as good a job at picking passwords  than those under 25-years-old.

That's according to the largest ever study of password security, which also found most people choose less secure passwords than experts recommend. The University of Cambridge study tracked nearly 70 million Yahoo! users of different demographic groups.

Unsurprisingly, people who change their password from time to time tend to select the strongest ones.

Take a closer look at the study HERE.
