🧼 Password Hygiene 101: Why It Matters (and How to Get It Right)

Strong passwords are your first line of defence against cyber threats — but let’s be honest:

Most people struggle with password security.

We forget them, reuse them, or store them in a notebook… under the keyboard.

That’s why at Covenant Defence, we teach businesses how to practice good password hygiene — and why we recommend Proton Pass, a privacy-first password manager that makes it simple, secure and stress-free.


🪥 What Is Password Hygiene?

Think of password hygiene like brushing your teeth.

It’s a small daily habit that prevents big problems down the track.

Good password hygiene means:

  • ✅ Using strong, unique passwords for every account

  • ✅ Storing them securely (NOT in your browser!)

  • ✅ Changing them if they’ve been compromised

  • ✅ Enabling MFA (multi-factor authentication) wherever possible

  • ✅ Avoiding sharing passwords with teammates or staff

But most businesses still rely on risky habits like:

  • ❌ Reusing passwords across platforms

  • ❌ Sharing logins over email or chat

  • ❌ Storing passwords in spreadsheets or sticky notes

  • ❌ Letting browsers auto-save credentials in plain text

💡 Hackers love bad password habits.

Compromised credentials are responsible for a huge portion of data breaches worldwide.


🛡️ Meet Proton Pass — Simple, Secure & Privacy-First

Proton Pass is built by the team behind Proton Mail and Proton VPN — trusted by privacy experts, journalists and activists worldwide.

Here’s why we recommend it to all our clients:

  • 🔒 End-to-End Encryption — Your data is encrypted before it leaves your device. Not even Proton can see your passwords.

  • 🧠 Smart Autofill & Generator — One-click logins and strong, random password creation

  • 🧬 Identity Protection — Use email aliases so you don’t give away your real email

  • 🔄 Cross-Device Sync — Access your vault on desktop, mobile, or browser

  • 🏢 Business Features — Team sharing, admin controls, secure vaults, and hygiene monitoring

And because it’s part of the Proton Business Suite, it integrates beautifully with:

  • Proton Mail

  • Proton Calendar

  • Proton Drive

  • Proton VPN


🧩 Why Proton Pass Beats Browser Password Storage

Browsers might offer convenience — but not real security.

Browser password storage is:

  • ❌ Vulnerable to malware

  • ❌ Often stored in plain text

  • ❌ Lacks admin controls or team management

  • ❌ Locked into one browser (Chrome, Safari, etc.)

Proton Pass is:

  • ✅ Zero-access (Proton can’t read your data)

  • ✅ Browser-agnostic

  • ✅ Open source & independently audited

  • ✅ Built with privacy-first design


🧰 How Covenant Defence Helps You Roll It Out
