Every year SplashData releases a list of the world’s worst passwords, and for the last five years that list hasn’t changed much. The list is an amusing look at password blunders, but the real lessons are in how and why those passwords exist in the first place. In late 2015, someone compromised the MMO Kings database and leaked it. The leaked data included unsalted MD5 password hashes, which (next to clear text) is the worst possible way to store passwords in a database. It took less than three minutes to crack 74-percent of the passwords.”]
