<p>Ahead of World Password Day on May 4, NordPass has released a report (https://nordpass.com/most-common-passwords-list/) showing that “password habits die hard” with a list of the most used passwords in the US and 29 other countries. For the US, many of the usual suspects are on the list, however, this time around “123456” is no longer the most popular password. The study also found 83% of these passwords can be cracked in “less than a second.”</p>
