Most Commonly Used Passwords

Watched the movie hackers on TV today. It is a OK kind of movie with lots of exaggeration.

But I found one interesting point made about most commonly used passwords. According to the movie, it is “love”, “secret”,”s**” and “GOD”. Of course, this movie is almost 15 years old.  Things have changed since then and so are the passwords.

There is a good article with stats on real world passwords on Bruce Schneier’s blog here . Check it out.
