When it comes to making up passwords, we’re not doing so great as a society.
在編密碼這件事上,大部分人的表現都不怎么樣。
Password management firm SplashData released its annual "Worst Passwords List," revealing that humans have remained rather indifferent to choosing unique, secure passwords since the company's first report in 2011. SplashData analyzed more than 2 million leaked passwords in 2015 and found several trends in the most common ones.
“Password” and “123456” still claim the top two spots on the list, where they've remained for the past five years. Simple numerical passwords remain an easy go-to; six of the top 10 passwords are comprised of only numbers.
You'll also find that references to sports and pop culture are fairly common. “Football” and “baseball” are both in the top 10 list, and in line with the release of The Force Awakens, “starwars,” “solo” and “princess” are all new entries on this year’s list.
Several others that weren't on the 2014 list include “welcome,” “login” and “passw0rd." Changing that "o" in password to a zero might seem original, but a lot of people had the same idea.
If you see your password on this list, make your 2016 resolution to do better.

“飛濺數據”建議使用這樣的密碼
1. Use passwords with 12 characters or more with mixed types of characters.
最好在12個字符以上,混合多種字符類型(譯者注:一個數字、一個字母、一個標點,都屬于一個字符)。
2. Avoid using the same password over and over again on different websites.
不同網站的賬戶不要反復使用同一個密碼。
3. Use a password manager, like SplashID or LastPass, to organize and protect passwords, generate random passwords and automatically log into websites.
