You shall not use the same password without changing it for a long period of time!

You shall not use passwords that include your birth date or other information that’s easily available online!

You shall not use words that can be found in a dictionary or that are common phrases!

You shall not use one of the shamefully weak passwords listed in this top 10!

You shall not use the default password sent to you by a service provider!

You shall not keep your passwords in a text file, spreadsheet, plain text or a similar, unprotected document!
