What is the main danger of using the same password for email, cloud storage, and payment account?
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A problem in one account can affect many accounts
Reusing one password creates a chain of risk. If an attacker learns it through one service, the same password may unlock the email, cloud files, and payment account. Different strong passwords limit the damage when one account is compromised; a password manager can help organise them. Reuse does not improve safety or affect hardware.
