America’s Password Security: A Growing Concern

Cyber attacks are increasing in frequency, and experts predict the situation will worsen. Therefore, it’s crucial for people to enhance their online safety practices, starting with strengthening their passwords.

Forbes Advisor recently published a report on America’s Password Habits, based on a survey of 2,000 individuals conducted by OnePoll. The findings revealed that 46% of respondents had their passwords stolen in the past year, with 68% needing to change their passwords across multiple accounts due to compromise. Social media accounts were the most targeted (29%), followed by email (15%) and Wi-Fi (9%).
