Most Internet users still prefer weak passwords over secure ones

Quote:If you are a reader of this blog you know that it is essential to use unique and strong passwords for any online or offline service that you use.

Most use a password manager for that; either one that integrates in the browser and stores data in the cloud, e.g. LastPass or 1Password, a hybrid like Bitwarden, or a local password manager like KeePass that stores data locally and may also be integrated in browsers.

Most Internet users, however, seem to follow their own guidelines when it comes to selecting passwords for services; that's the impression that you get when you look at the top 100 worst passwords of 2018, and compare these to previous years.

It will also have potential problems to use password managers. KeePass might be a better choice.
