Poor Passwords

Stephan Pringle Monday, August 29, 2016

If you have a WordPress site and did not rename the Administrator account, be sure to avoid the following passwords as these are very poor passwords and the most tested passwords by hackers upon your website.

* 1234
* 1234567
* 159753
* 1q2w3e4r5t
* 666666
* 789456123
* 88888888
* 9111961
* admin1
* adminadmin
* demo
* password
* q1w2e3r4t5

As you can see, numbers are not an ideal password. Also, longer and special characters will be ideal. Did you know that a good way to scramble a password is to switch up the characters? Try it next time.
