How often should I change my passwords?

The frequency of changing your password can depend on a few factors. Old cybersecurity advice recommended frequent password changes, but not anymore. Experts now agree that using a long, strong, and unique password generated and stored in a password manager is preferable to frequently changing a password. The National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) also suggests lowering the frequency of password changes.

However, there are certain instances where you should change your passwords immediately:
• If you think your password has been stolen.
• If the service you are using has disclosed a breach.
