Index – Tech-Tudomány – Is your password Viktorka or Katica?  It is better to replace it

the Nord Pass Traditionally, towards the end of the year, it prepares a compilation of the weakest passwords used in a particular year, which is now hvg.hu to attest. This revealed that users use the weakest passwords on the website of streaming service providers, while they put the strongest passwords on the website of services related to their money.

The top ten list is as follows:

  1. 123456
  2. Responsible
  3. 12345678
  4. 123456789
  5. 1234
  6. 12345
  7. password
  8. 123
  9. AA123456
  10. 1234567890

Even at first glance, it can be determined that seven out of ten passwords contain only numbers, in ascending order, and someone very creatively managed to write a lowercase and uppercase letter “a” in front of it. There were only two passwords where only letters were used, one of which meant password in Hungarian.

According to NordPass, these passwords can be cracked in less than a second. In 11th place on the list, the term “unknown” takes much longer, 17 seconds.

According to the portal, the list of the worst local passwords has been rearranged somewhat. By 123456, admin became the worst password of the year. The third place was taken by Kinder123, and in this regard there is no change compared to 2022.

These are the 20 most frequently entered passwords in Hungary:

  1. Responsible
  2. 123456
  3. Kinder123
  4. Your great
  5. 12345678
  6. 123456789
  7. Motorola
  8. phone
  9. 000000
  10. almonds
  11. 12345
  12. point online
  13. qqqqq
  14. password
  15. Stepmom21
  16. com. qwertz
  17. ladybug41
  18. My little boy 123
  19. Master 1234
  20. Viktorka

It is interesting that KSH According to his data, Victor is not one of the most popular first names for boys, as it has not been in the top 25, at least for the past 22 years. Her surname, Viktorka, is still a very common password here. This is the case with Katika. How this can be explained, it is impossible to know for sure.
