2025 World Password Day: May 1

World Password Day – Time to Level Up Your Security

Passwords are your first line of defense online — but most people are still using weak or reused ones. Today is World Password Day, the perfect time to check your habits and boost your security.

Here’s how to level up:


1. Use Long, Strong, and Unique Passwords

Short passwords are easy to crack. Use at least 12 characters with a mix of letters, numbers, and symbols. And never reuse the same password on different sites.


2. Try a Passphrase

Instead of random characters, use a sentence that’s easy to remember but hard to guess. Example: TacosForDinner@MyPlace2025


3. Turn On Multi-Factor Authentication (MFA)

MFA adds a second step — like a text message or app code — after your password. It’s one of the best ways to block hackers.


4. Use a Password Manager

Stop trying to remember every password. Use a password manager to generate and store them securely.

Important Service Update: We're Coming to You

December 1, 2025
We've made an exciting change to how we serve our customers at Top City Tech. We are moving away from walk-in or drop-offs at our shop. Instead, we're bringing our expertise directly to you. We are now picking up devices from you, working on them, and returning them to you! Why This Change Benefits You Your time is valuable. We realized that requiring you to pack up your computer, drive to our shop, wait for service, and make another trip to pick it up was costing you hours of productivity. By coming to you, we're eliminating that hassle entirely. Faster turnaround. Without the overhead of managing a retail storefront, we can focus entirely on solving your technical problems quickly and efficiently. Many issues can be resolved on-site during our first visit, getting you back to work the same day. More personalized service. Seeing your technology in its actual working environment helps us provide better solutions. We can address network issues, printer connectivity, and other problems that only show up in your specific setup. How Our New Process Works 1. We Pick Up . Schedule a convenient time, and we'll come to your location to collect your equipment. No packing, no driving, no waiting in line. 2. We Do the Work . Your device gets our full attention in our workshop. We'll keep you updated on progress and any findings along the way. 3. We Return Everything . Once the work is complete, we deliver your equipment back to you, set it up if needed, and make sure everything is working perfectly before we leave. The Bottom Line This transition allows us to provide you with white-glove service that respects your time and delivers better results. You stay productive while we handle the technical heavy lifting. Ready to schedule a pickup? Send us an email, call, or text to get this started. Note : We no longer offer electronics recycling services. For recycling, please contact Mobile Wave Repair or Shawnee County Hazardous Waste to check on availability and capacity.
