Tips to strengthen password security include avoiding easy to guess passwords, changing passwords every 3 months for non-administrative users and 45-60 days for admins, and using unique passwords for each account. Passwords should include a combination of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters to make them more difficult to crack. Personal information and common words should be avoided when creating passwords.
