If you're going to store CC#, even if you encrypt them, make sure that the machine goes into lockdown. Close all unused ports, don't run any software that you don't have too.

Don't use regular words, backwards regular words, or words with numbers after it. There are programs that will crack those open in minutes. Just my $0.02.
