Forgotten password…
.
Markus: Never keep password lists on your phone. It could malfunction, you could lose it, it could be stolen.
.
Cynthia: Hmm. A vulnerable device.
.
Markus: And with it your data could fly away as easily as a drone. Keep a record on a secure computer. Better yet on a password protected USB memory stick. Not connected to the internet or a WiFi environment. Portable, secure. And a copy on paper, securely locked up somewhere.
.
Cynthia: But passwords have to be changed regularly. Keeping track of those, I mean, I sometimes use an old password by mistake.
.
Markus: Keep your password records updated. Like an aircraft has to be maintained. Keep a logbook.

Aircraft logs are a metaphor, like a desktop, or a folder or a trashcan on a computer. Maybe we don’t need a metaphor here but a model, that is a system or a procedure. A template.
