Worst Passwords of 2013

According to this article, password is no longer the #1 password that people are using, now its 123456.

Are people smarter when it comes to passwords? Well…. I think some are just lazy.
A good password should be at least 8 characters long, with UPPER and lower case, to include numbers and characters.
Authentication systems should store the password with a one-way hash, lock the account temporarily or fully after 5 tries, and send an alert to either a security team or a help desk team.
