It's really interesting to know that some persons do not pay attention to their security online or while using internet services ranging from social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter, etc to shopping sites like Amazon, Jumia, etc. Most importantly, some persons still do not know what is a weak or strong password while signing up to online platforms. Well I have a list of 2019 top 20 worst passwords.
Drawing on an analysis of a total of 500 million passwords that were leaked in various data breaches in 2019, NordPass found that ‘12345’, ‘123456’ and ‘123456789’ reigned supreme in order of frequency.
About 6.3 million accounts use 12345’, ‘123456’ and ‘123456789’ as a password to secure their account which is questionable.
If your password looks like what is written above or similar, then you should consider changing it very fast otherwise, hackers may easily get access to your account. One easy way of generating a strong password is to use a combination of upper and lower case, numbers and symbols; with that, it will be difficult to hack.
