Passwords.
Your passwords are the keys you use to access personal information that you've stored on your computer and in your online accounts.
If criminals or hackers steal this information they can use your name to open a new credit card account, apply for a mortgage, or pose as you in online transactions. In many cases you would not notice these attacks until it was too late.
But a password is no good if it can be easily broken.
