지난해 쓰인 가장 흔한 비밀번호가 ‘123456’으로 나타났다고 IT 전문매체 씨넷 등 외신이 전했다.

이번 집계는 지난해 어도비 고객 정보 해킹 사건 등 지난해에 확인된 사례 수백만건을 비밀번호 관리 전문업체 스플래시데이터가 분석한 결과다.
숫자가 연속되거나 ‘qwerty’ ‘abc’ 등 연속 문자열도 흔한 비밀번호로 꼽혔다.
씨넷은 해킹을 피하려면 비밀번호를 더 복잡하게 만들어야 한다고 전했다. 가령 ‘123!456@’처럼 익숙한 문자열에 임의 문자를 끼워넣으면 외우기 쉬우면서도 해킹 당하기 어렵다고 씨넷은 전했다.

‘123456’ is worst password of 2013
“123456” has become the commonest and worst password on the Internet, unseating “password,” which topped the previous list, Cnet reported.
Security-focused developer SplashData compiled the list from data dumps of stolen passwords posted online, and the millions of Adobe accounts that were compromised in the fall.
Passwords like “adobe123” and “photoshop” also make SplashData’s top 25 list due to the breadth of the Adobe hack.
To better protect your data without memorizing myriad strings of nonsense numbers, letters and symbols, SplashData recommended passwords that contain random words separated by spaces or characters such as “trolls_jobs_need” or “Crave_love_I_do,” Cnet said.
