Laughing at Cybersecurity? Your ‘123456’ Password Is No Joke!

Oh, the irony of “password” being a common password! NordPass’s annual list of common password vulnerabilities proves we’re no Einsteins in the cybersecurity department. With “123456” also topping the charts, it’s a hacker’s paradise. In the ever-evolving digital world, it’s high time we say goodbye to easy-to-crack codes and hello to stronger, unique passwords.

Hot Take:

Oh, humanity! When it comes to setting up passwords, we're still acting like it's the first time we've heard of this thing called "cybersecurity." Cyber pros have been singing the same tune for years, but we're still out here using "123456" and "password" as our supposed secure codes. Shockingly, NordPass's annual list of common passwords suggests we're not quite the creative geniuses we thought we were when it comes to password creation. So, let's get it together, folks! As much as we love sharing our Netflix accounts, let's try not to make it a walk in the park for our friendly neighborhood hackers.
