In a study conducted by NordPass, the world's leading password management software, shocking revelations about the state of cybersecurity have come to light. Brace yourselves as we unveil the most common passwords that could be cracked in less than a second!
According to NordPass's research, the infamous "123456" takes the crown as the most widely used and easily hackable password, residing in a staggering 45 million accounts worldwide. But that's not all – "admin" and "12345678" follow closely, with 40 million and 13.7 million accounts using these equally vulnerable passwords.
🌏 India, too, is not immune to this alarming trend. "123456" dominates as the most common password in approximately 360,000 accounts, closely trailed by "admin" in 120,000 accounts. Are your credentials among these risky choices?
Dive into our video to understand why users passionate about streaming content are opting for weaker passwords compared to other online platforms. The study showcases that, surprisingly, popular streaming websites have a higher prevalence of poor password choices.
As NordPass rightfully dubs it, "123456" is undeniably the "world's worst password," securing its position four out of five times as the most common password. Only once did it lose the title to the generic "Password."
