The vast majority of us probably have an email account, either for work, personal use or anything in between.
And as handy as they are for keeping in contact with other people, businesses and things we care about, they aren't always the most secure as hackers can strike at any moment and access your personal information.
But having a strong password can help to reduce the risks of this happening. Recent research has shown that the word 'password' itself is still the most common email password in the UK, giving thieves the ideal opportunity to hack your account and commit fraud.
