If You’re Using One of These Passwords, Your Doors are Wide Open

Using weak or common passwords can make your accounts highly vulnerable to hacking. Some of the worst passwords include:

  • 123456
  • password
  • 123456789
  • 12345678
  • 12345
  • 1234567
  • qwerty
  • 111111
  • abc123
  • password1

Additionally, using simple variations or predictable patterns such as:

  • letmein
  • iloveyou
  • admin
  • welcome
  • monkey
  • dragon
  • football
  • !@#$%^&*
  • 123123
  • sunshine

These passwords are easily guessable and should be avoided. Instead, opt for a strong password that combines uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special characters. Consider using a password manager to generate and store complex passwords securely and to use built-in encryption to make your passwords even more secure.
