People are just lazy sometimes to think for their password or to memorize it.

Easy and lazy way that I use to make all of my passwords strong and unguessable is to use password generator addons such as lastpass or roboform.

Like many on the list it's not the user of the account's fault - these are most often the default passwords signed by the staff during reset without having the "force new password" option set.

I worked for a large multination company that was obsessed with security. Every password reset was

Three Letter Dictionary Word NN Three Letter Dictionary word.

So this doesn't surprise me
????: NamePros.com http://www.namepros.com/showthread.php?t=738120

My current password for my email has two punctuation, two numbers and 4 characters of which two are Upper Case. Guess away - worst case you will find an amusing stories and some legal discussion that is not that private.


I often hear that your security is only as strong as your biggest idiot. In reality your only as strong as your biggest ego.. .and no one has egos as large as overweight sandal-wearing Unix admin (yes, if you think I'm talking about you? then I am )

You're getting close to mine now though so I changed it from Monkey to DefaultPassword.

I don't think anyone will think of that.

I must admit I've used some of the most common passwords in one of my online accounts. might as well change it to prevent hackers from entering my account.

I think I have seen that before. Boy I was using one or two of the passwords listed, I know that making passwords should not be taken for granted. Maybe that is the reason why hackers keep on logging in my accounts.
