People worry about their Data & Do Nothing To Protect It
Over 50% of the passwords in use today are on this list o 25. Number one is "123456" Number 3 is "qwerty", and sadly the number 8 most commonly used password is ..... "password".
What are your passwords? What do you use? Are you secure?
By obtaining someone’s password, hackers can potentially access a wealth of personal information and financial data. The best advice for you is to use a combination of upper and lower case letters, numbers and symbols in a password and never use the same password on multiple online accounts.
Here are the Top 25:
1. 123456
2. 123456789
3. qwerty
4. 12345678
5. 111111
6. 1234567890
7. 1234567
8. password
9. 123123
10. 987654321
11. qwertyuiop
12. mynoob
13. 123321
14. 666666
15. 18atcskd2w
16. 7777777
17. 1q2w3e4r
18. 654321
19. 555555
20. 3rjs1la7qe
21. google
22. 1q2w3e4r5t
23. 123qwe
24. zxcvbnm
25. 1q2w3e
You may notice that:
1. Numbers 1, 2, 4, 6, 7, 10, and 18 are all just consecutive numbers.
2. Numbers 3, 11, and 24 are consecutive keyboard letters, just the top or bottom rows on the keyboard.
3. Numbers 17, 22, 23, and 25 Are just number one and number two above combined.
So 14 of the top 25 passwords in use today are all from these top three "strategies".
The random generated passwords, number 15 and number 20 may, alarmingly, be from password managers generating a supposed random series of numbers and letters. But perhaps it is not so random. Or possibly they are the passwords of bots or automated accounts designed to post spam online or carry out phishing attacks.
Employ good secure password protection. Not this:
