What is the best way to create strong password that I can remember easily?

There are many ways to create strong passwords; the key is to find the right combination of complexity and familiarity. Take a look at the some suggestions and examples below.

• Use passwords that are at least 8 characters in length with numbers and mixed upper and lower case. Use special characters ($%&@#, etc.) when possible. Note, the password policy for some applications may still have an 8-character maximum and not allow special characters. If your preferred password is too long, just use the first 8 characters.
• An easy way to create a password is to think of a phrase and use the first letter of each word. Mix upper and lower case and add numbers. Examples:
  • I can eat 32 wontons with Hot Sauce - Ice32wwHS
  • My 2 parents and 9 kids drive me nuts – M2pa9kdmn
  • The Lakers will win every game this season - TLwwegts
