We live in such a sophisticated world these days that it's all too
possible for clever tech types to make a nuisance of themselves by
hacking into anyone's online accounts.
But the thing is, we're making it easy for them, by making our passwords asstupid simple as something like 'password'. C'mon, man, didn't your ICT GCSE teach you anything?
Thankfully, though, SplashData has compiled its annual list of the 25 passwords that have been stolen and made public throughout the past year - essentially, which ones are most hackable.
1. 123456
2. password
3. 12345678
4. qwerty
5. 12345
6. 123456789
7. football
8. 1234
9. 1234567
10. baseball

So there you go - are you keeping on the safe side of technology? If you're not, it's time to change that password asap.
