Please stop using a company name as your password

Apple was one of the top-listed passwords compared to other company names by Cybernews.

If you think this would be obvious, then you obviously never spent time at a company in a small town run by folks who may be too old to really understand the basics of cybersecurity.

Some of the most-abused company names appearing in passwords on the dark web include:

apple

amr

yahoo

aes

aon

dell

gap

nike

google

emc
