The list is in, and it doesn’t look good. Apparently people just can’t be trained to come up with new and clever passwords, based on the list of the most popular passwords. Such disappointment!
Still atop the list are 123456
and password
. Seriously?
New is the password 1qaz2wsx
, which at first I thought was kind of mysterious, but if you look at your computer keyboard, you’ll figure out what’s going on; it’s not clever at all!
Passwords are important! Make them long and memorable. Add upper and lower case letters. Add a numbers. Add a symbol.
