New Delhi, November 18 : .In India, “password” is the most used password, not “123456”, as widely believed.
New research revealed that Japan was the only country with the same password as India.Others common passwords in India include “iloveyou”, krishna, “sairam”, and “omsairam”, to name a few.
NordPass, a password manager proprietary to NordPass has found that India is particularly fond on keyboard and numerical sequences.
The top ranked passwords were variations of qwerty and 12345.
These combinations were also very popular worldwide, according to the research.
Both men and women in India were fond of names and affectionate words.
Other common passwords for India include 123456789 and 12345678.
The Indian password list shows similar trends to many other countries but it also displays its own unique characteristics.
India is among the few countries with a unique number one password.43 of 50 countries were able to identify ‘password’.
In India, “Qwerty”, and variations thereof are very popular.
The research found that other combinations of letters, such as vertical and horizontal letter combinations are also very popular.
Both men and women love names, such as “priyanka”,’sanjay”, ‘rakesh, and many others.
English is also a common language for loving words, especially among women.
Research also showed how fragile the most popular passwords are.It is indicative of the amount of time required to crack them.
In India, the average time to crack 62 of 200 passwords is less than one second.This is 31%, whereas the global percentage is 84.5 percent.
Jonas Karklys CEO at NordPass, says, “Unfortunately the passwords are getting weaker”
Karklys said that passwords are crucial to digital life.
With more people spending time online it is becoming increasingly important to protect our cyber security.
You should change your password if you find it on the list.
To create complex passwords, you can use an online password generator or your password manager app.
The average user has about 100 accounts.It would therefore be difficult to keep track of all passwords, even if each one is unique or complex.The research found that password managers can be a wonderful solution to this problem.
It doesn’t matter if it is biometric authentication or phone message.
