The findings underscore the importance of robust password management, as the majority of reviewed passwords were easily compromised using smart guessing algorithms. “The majority of the examined passwords (57 per cent) contain a word from the dictionary, which significantly reduces the passwords’ strength. Standard passwords: “password”, “qwerty12345”, “admin”, “12345”, “team,” the report highlighted. “Given that, the most dependable solution is to generate a completely random password using modern and reliable password managers. Such apps as Kaspersky Password Manager can securely store large volumes of data, providing comprehensive and robust protection for user information,” commented Novikova.
