It was just that I had no solution to my trouble. It wasn’t like I was not aware of the security threat of using same passwords. That despite the fact that I’m a computer engineer and know that this is not a good practice. Since my passwords were very, I considered myself safe. In the initial years of my online career, I was the same and had a few passwords which I used on all the websites. This is another psychological reason that we don’t take our own security as an utmost priority. Why will a hacker target me? I don’t have money, and I’m not that important. Even though we know it’s dangerous, and we are prone to hacking, we don’t want to take the hassle of creating a new password for every website we sign up on. It is the over-confidence that most of us use the same password on all websites we access. Confidence is good but overconfidence is what makes most of us vulnerable and prone to getting hacked.
