What are your passwords? What are your worst passwords? Would any of them make the list of the worst passwords out there? If you use password as your password anywhere, it’s 4 on the list. NordVPN has been releasing a list of these for 6 years, based on data breaches, and it found disturbing news. 123456, the 1 worst. Secret, LetMeIn, all numbers like 12345, each of them is a crazy bad password that is on that list. Each of these common passwords, and so many more that we think are throw-away, can be used against us in various hacks. I frequently point out that the best password is something original and unique to you alone, long, hard to type, and isn’t plastered all over the internet already.

Some six years after virtual private network company NordVPN started searching data breaches for the most-used passwords, things are every bit as bad as when the company started.
