Is 'Password123' still a thing? What's the funniest or most common password you've come across?

by•

We've all seen some funny passwords, but it's time for a change. Corbado, our new product for passwordless authentication, is now live on Product Hunt. Ditch those predictable passwords and join the revolution at www.producthunt.com/posts/corbado.

@lrueger just found this funny thing on Hacker News recently: Password may not contain: select, insert, update, delete, drop (https://news.ycombinator.com/ite...)
@lrueger @vdelitz I started to code in 2008 and it's always been the same: filter the input and escape the output!

(their name)iscool It was a google password too 😂 Congratz on your launch.
@edena I felt seen when I read this. I had this a long long time ago. Now you need caps, special characters, etc

@edena @slimmy82 Hopefully soon not anymore, once passkeys took over. Did you see our launch already? :)

People using their name and adding '69' at the end because they think it's funny. Although the kid inside me still thinks its funny..

@slimmy82 smart idea by the way. I have a couple people in my circle that could do with your platform 👌🏼
@callum_jones1 hahahahaha these are the kind of things that either you get married to that person or you split immediately!

my friend's wifi password was stealmy@$$. I cried for like 5 minutes straight 🤣
@anshul_raghav my wifi net is called "404 - Not Found" and the password is a variation of "I don't know. You?". I feel a nerd now ahaha

For me, the funniest password was "qwerty". One of the most common passwords.
Lukas Rüger
@ixord Indeed, I think together with '12345' it's one of the most common

Funny story, back in the day my old company was migrating an ecommerce store from their old platform and we couldn't figure out why the passwords wouldn't import into the new system. Turns out, over 20% of the customers' accounts had their passwords set as a single space, just "12345", or something else under 6 characters. We had to build a system to force all of them to update their passwords to be secure... It's wild to see how many people don't take password management seriously. Cool launch, by the way :)

@lrueger We couldn't believe it! Thousands of users from this ecom store had awful passwords. It was also nuts that the old platform stored the passwords in PLAIN TEXT lol
@lrueger @anthony_latona ahaha I was going to say that: plain text passwords! I worked in a company like that: 30 million plain-text passwords (and CC numbers)
