🎧 We all know we should use strong passwords, but let's be real – most of us don't. 😅 A new report from anyIP reveals that our passwords are easier to hack than we think! 😱
To create this list, anyIP used NordPass's list of the 200 worst passwords worldwide and analyzed how often these passwords were used in hacking attempts. Spoiler alert: "password" is the most commonly used password globally, making it the easiest to hack. 🥴
But here in the U.S., the most hackable password is "secret," which can be cracked in less than a second! 😬
"Hackers are getting super sophisticated and can breach accounts in seconds. Using weak passwords is like leaving your front door wide open," says anyIP co-founder Khaled Bentoumi. 🚪🔓
So, what are the top 10 most hackable passwords in the U.S.? Here they are:
- secret
- 123456
- password
- qwerty123
- qwerty1
- 123456789
