Method 1: Use a Strong password:

This is the most important and most neglected thing. Just for the sake of keeping an easy password people forget about the security of their account. You should always make sure that you create a secure and strong password. Make sure your password is:

  • Not a dictionary word or a variation of dictionary word.
  • Should not be a sequential or repeated word.
  • Make sure it doesn’t include your personal information like name, date of birth etc.

Method 2: Safely use Hotmail on public computer:

On various occasions we have to take help from public computers to check any urgent mails. Generally people think, checking mail on public computer is same as personal computer but that is not so. Public computers are highly insecure, and this is the reason that you should use HTTPS instead of HTTP on public computers. Apart from this, you can use one time code to sign in with. The code you use generally come on your mobile or an alternate email address and hence other person can’t use your account. This ways you won’t have to use your real password, you use an auto generated password for that particular login.

Method 3: Connect with HTTPS:

When you use HTTPS instead of HTTP you make communication between your Hotmail server and your computer more secure. If anyone tries to intercept the connection, the connection will break and they will not be able to get any information about the communication. For using HTTPS, simply go to Microsoft Manage SSL page and select "Use HTTPS automatically".

If you follow the above methods, you will be able to make your account more secure. However, if you think your Hotmail account security is already hampered or your account is hacked by anyone, then feel free to dial Hotmail Support Number +1-866-569-8043 USA for recovering your account.
