Securing your devices with a password is always important. Especially to protect it if it falls into the wrong hand. So if your device will be password protected then you will not have to worry about your data being stolen by someone or someone having an access to your data.
And it is also important to have a password that is not easily predictable. And it is also recommended to use a combination of words, numbers, and characters to make it even more difficult to predict.
It also make sure that not all your devices have the same password so that even if someone has predicted one of your passwords, they are still not able to have access to any other devices of yours.
