Is a 6 digit PIN really that much more secure than a 4 digit PIN?

 

A six digit PIN isn’t just slightly more secure than a four digit pin. It’s actually a LOT more secure. And that isn’t an opinion, it’s a statistical fact. Here’s why…

A four digit PIN has 10,000 possible combinations. I know that sounds pretty impressive, but it’s actually quite easy to break using various electronic methods.

However, a six digit pin has a whopping 1 million possible combinations. And that of course makes it LOT harder to break (and a lot more time consuming) using those same methods.

Enough with the fingertips: Use your knees, feet, elbows and knuckles instead

 

If you're still pressing buttons for walk signs with your fingertips, stop. Any time you have to open a door, push a button, pull a lever or digitally sign for something, use a different body part instead. You have plenty.

For example,Tap out a PIN code or make a selection on a digital screen with your knuckle instead of the pad of your finger. Push open a door with my shoulder, hip or foot instead of my hands.

You can usually flip on a light switch or sink faucet with your elbow or wrist, and you can wrap the sleeve of your sweater or jacket around the handle of any doors you have to physically pull open. It's easy enough to toss your clothing into the wash later rather than expose your skin now, especially if the chances you'll use your hands to touch food items or your face is high.
