A company called SplashData as recently compiled a list of the top passwords that are easily discovered by Hackers - and from now on by anyone who wants to check the neighbour's email box or facebook account.
According to an article published by the news site Mashable.com, most users use very predictable passwords, such as number or keyboard letters sequences.
Morgan Slain, CEO of
SplashData says: “Hackers can easily break into many accounts just by repeatedly trying
common passwords. Even though people are encouraged to
select secure, strong passwords, many people continue to choose weak,
easy-to-guess ones, placing themselves at risk from fraud and identity
theft.”
Here's an advice: don't use any of these passwords:
1. password
2. 123456
3. 12345678
4. qwerty
5. abc123
6. monkey
7. 1234567
8. letmein
9. trustno1
10. dragon
11. baseball
12. 111111
13. iloveyou
14. master
15. sunshine
16. ashley
17. bailey
18. passw0rd
19. shadow
20. 123123
21. 654321
22. superman
23. qazwsx
24. michael
25. football
And if any of these passwords looks familiar, maybe it is time for a change!!
