NordPass, a password management tool from the NordVPN team, released its list of the 200 most common passwords for 2022 – and it turns out that people are still using weak passwords.
The most common password in the world this year was "password" and it took hackers less than a second to crack it. The same applies to the second and third most common passwords: "123456" and "123456789", respectively.
The most important tip, though? If your password is on the list, it's time to make a change.
To make sure you haven't been hacked, here are the 20 most common NordPass passwords for this year:
