Adobe was recently hit by a massive hack-attack affecting over 38 million users and putting their classified information at risk including that of credit card details.

It is indeed astonishing to find that despite the increased threat of every piece of information put on any tech company’s database being on the hit list of hackers, people still choose to opt for easy-to-guess passwords.

The early October hack breached Adobe servers and hackers gained access to a whopping 130 million passwords.

Password cracker and researcher at Stricture Consulting Group deciphered six million of the passwords, and revealed the most common and very easy to guess passwords.
