Dumbest default passwords

“QWERTY” was listed as one of the most used passwords in the U.S. by NordPass in 2022.

Both Cybernews and NordPass mentioned that some of the most stereotypically idiotic passwords are still being picked up by hackers in the year of our Lord 2022. For all that is holy, there’s no reason to use “password” or “123456” for any account, whether its for personal or general use.

NordPass does not include exact figures for some of these results, but lists them as some of the most-used passwords scraped up from dark web. Top dumb defaults included:

123456

admin

root

111111
