According to a report published this week by password management service NordPass, the most common and easiest password to guess this year is '123456,” followed by “password.”

Breaking the data down by country, there are a few regional differences. For example, “guest” was a common password for Americans while Canadians were more likely to use “123456,” with "guest" lower down on the list. Another example is the word “hockey” ranked toward the top of the list as a common Canadian password. “Baseball” held the same spot in the U.S.

Similarly, in the U.K., people went for “Liverpool” and “arsenal,” while residents of Italy had words like “ciao” and “juventus.""Password" was the most common password for Canadian women, while men were more likely to use "123456." Both passwords were on both lists, but in a different order. High on the women's list in Canada were also the passwords "sunshine," "Hudson," "Shannon," and "sparti52," none of which made the men's top 10. The ones that were popular with Canadian men like “123456”, “password”, 12345”… were all common globally.People were inspired by some events and ceremonies and using the names and symbols as passwords.

However, the most popular categories of all time were highlighted in the report are food, swear words, fashion brands, sports, movies, artists, cars and video games. As an example, “fish” was used 8,574,307 times, the f-word was used 21,223,795 times and “tiffany” was used 14,767,880 times.
