James Bond’s stupid password

In the new Bond film, Casino Royale, a Swiss banker asks Bond to enter a password for a bank account that will hold the $150m winnings from a poker game.

They may teach martial arts, driving, shooting and seduction at MI6 but not much IT security.

What password does he use? The name of his girlfriend. D’oh!

Now listen carefully, Bond. Q here. Go to the Get Safe Online website and read the manual on strong passwords. And do try to bring the car back in one piece this time.
