Top 500 worst passwords

See the top 500 worst passwords (I agree when it comes to the offensive/expletive ones). Honestly, out of all the English words to chose from–anyway, that’s another post.

I noticed that the ones I had used years ago were on the list.  Quite interesting.

Examples of ‘clever’ passwords:

ncc1701 The ship number for the Starship Enterprise
thx1138 The name of George Lucas’s first movie, a 1971 remake of an earlier student project
qazwsx Follows a simple pattern when typed on a typical keyboard
666666 Six sixes
7777777 Seven sevens
ou812 The title of a 1988 Van Halen album
8675309 The number mentioned in the 1982 Tommy Tutone song. The song supposedly caused an epidemic of people dialing 867- 5309 and asking for “Jenny”

[What's My Pass?]
