Protecting Your Online Passwords

Christina Warren says it's just as important for small businesses as it is for consumers to use best practices for ensuring online passwords aren't compromised - possibly more important.

"It’s almost impossible to understate the importance of having and using strong, secure online passwords. As important as it is for consumers to heed this advice, it can be even more important for businesses to use and secure the passwords of their various accounts. As tools like Firesheep have shown, gaining access to an e-mail or Facebook account can be alarmingly simple.

Fortunately, there are tools and precautions companies can take that will help simplify the process of keeping passwords safe and protected."
