不久前,一个社交网站被黑客攻击,其3200万用户的密码被公开在网上。有人对这些公开的密码进行了研究,发现竟有大约30万人的密码是123456,紧随其后的是12345和123456789。研究者还发现,大约20%的用户使用了最常见的5000个密码。也就是说,只要用这5000个最常用的密码不断尝试,就可以窃取20%的用户的信息。这一结果不能不让人惊讶—在这个信息为王的时代,信息安全竟然受到人们如此轻率的对待。 Not long ago, a social networking site was hacked and its 32 million user passwords were made public online. Some people have conducted research on these public passwords and found that as many as 300,000 people have a password of 123456, followed by 12345 and 123456789. The researchers also found that about 20% of the users used the most common 5000 passwords. In other words, as long as the 5000 most commonly used passwords continue to try, you can steal 20% of the user’s information. This result can not but be surprising - in an era when information was king, information security was treated with such carelessness.
