A secure password should have letters (both capital and lowercase), numbers, and punctuation or symbols (such as a period [.], underscore [_], or dash [-]) if the website allows those characters.

Sometimes it may be safer to have a pass phrase instead of a password, like instead of "password", it could be "thisismypassword", with numbers put in place of letters and some letters capitalized.

In general, it should be something that no one could guess, so it shouldn't be anything like your username or given name, your spouse's name, or your address.

How a password protects data against crminal elements?

Passwords allow only authorised people to view the information. Without the password - the data remains secure. Passwords can be any length (usually a minimum of five characters) - and made up from numbers, letters and other characters. The longer the password - the more secure it is. For example... say you need a password of just numbers and letters... a five digit password would have a possible 60,466,176 combinations. However a ten-digit password would have 3656158,440,062,976 possibilities !
