Do You Use One of the Worst Passwords?
The list of 2014's most commonly-used passwords has been released. Is yours on here, just waiting to be figured out?
Cyber security is no joke, but unfortunately sometimes we really don't make it as difficult as it could be for people to get into our sensitive information. It's much easier to just pick a common phrase or sequence of numbers so we can fly right into our Facebook. Wouldn't want to miss a moment of Candy Crush Soda Saga or whatever, after all!
But luckily, this list from Time Magazine can tell you what the most common passwords of last year were so you can avoid them.
