The most used passwords of 2014

cloclo8003

Not sure if this is in the right category, but I wanted to share this with you guys.

123456 is still the most used password, and that didn't change since 2013.

 

I don't get how people have "696969" or "dragon" as password. You should always be careful online. If your password is on this list, change it. Now.

 

Here is the full list:

1    123456 (Unchanged from 2013)

The funny thing is that after all the hackings, shorter password went 17 places up (12345) and the (12345678) went down. Next year prediction. Number 1. place will take 12345

No amount of safe password storage and crypto will save you if your password is easily guessable.

Don't be like these people.

Well that sums it up nicely; Superman is better than Batman.

 

I guess my password of 654321 is still safe ;)

You keep using that word. I do not think it means what you think it means.
Users cannot, and will not securely manage key material. Most users can't and the ones that can, wont.

Ask me about Bitcoin, Litecoin, Crypto-Currencies, and/or Mining them.

To be fair, I use the password, 'password' for accounts that I don't care about which are linked to my junk email. I don't want to use one of my more secure passwords since I don't always trust the websites. I wonder what these passwords were used for.
