Top 30 Most Stolen LinkedIn Passwords
LinkedIn confirmed that 6.5 million LinkedIn passwords were subject to a security breach. A Russian hacker stole encrypted passwords and posted them online (without usernames) to prove his feat.
According to Mashable, “Link” was the number one hacked password. But many other LinkedIn users also picked passwords — “work” and “job” for example — that were associated with the career site’s content. Religion was also a popular password topic — “god,” “angel” and “jesus” also made the top 15. Number sequences such as “1234″ and “12345″ also made the list.
Fantastic infographic, thanks for sharing. I can't believe some people would have such small/simple/obvious passwords! Also surprised that "password" wasn't on there and wasn't higher!
