Often, criminals use lists of the most common phrases like qwerty, 12345678, and 1q2w3e. Employees use these because they're easy to remember. But by doing so, they may welcome interlopers into your hardware and software. Article continues... click title or click here to read whole article. 2024-04-19 22:44:10 | Comments | Printable version
