Additional Security
For extra security measures, experts recommend that you change your passcode frequently throughout the year. A perfect suggestion is to alter the code with the holidays. For example, consider updating around four times a year, at less apparent intervals: Christmas, St. Patrick’s Day, July 4th and Halloween.
