Imperva, a data security firm, said it had analysed around 32 million passwords that had been exposed in a recent hack of the RockYou website.

Imperva這家數(shù)據(jù)安全公司說他們分析了在最近被攻擊的RockYou網(wǎng)站泄露的大約3200萬個(gè)密碼。

In December last year a hacker breached the site's company database and gained access to the unencrypted usernames and passwords of all its 32 million users.

去年12月,一個(gè)黑客攻擊了運(yùn)營這家網(wǎng)站的公司的數(shù)據(jù),得到了全部3200萬名用戶的用戶名和密碼。

After studying the security breach Imperva has come up with a list of the most commonly used passwords which website users should avoid.

在研究了安全漏洞之后,Imperva列出了一個(gè)最常用的密碼列表,這些都是網(wǎng)絡(luò)用戶最應(yīng)該避免使用的。

“Everyone needs to understand what the combination of poor passwords means in today’s world of automated cyber attacks: with only minimal effort, a hacker can gain access to one new account every second—or 1000 accounts every 17 minutes,” said Amichai Shulman, Imperva’s chief technical officer.

Imperva 的CTO Amichai Shulman說,“大家需要知道,在這個(gè)充滿自動網(wǎng)絡(luò)攻擊的當(dāng)代世界中,一個(gè)糟糕的密碼組意味著什么:一個(gè)黑客只要小花點(diǎn)功夫每秒就能獲取一個(gè)新的賬戶和密碼,大約17分鐘就能獲取1000個(gè)賬戶。”

“Employees using the same passwords on Facebook that they use in the workplace bring the possibility of compromising enterprise systems with insecure passwords, especially if they are using easy to crack passwords like ‘123456’,” he added.

他還說,“一個(gè)公司職員如果在Facebook上和公司里都用同樣的密碼的話,就有用不安全的密碼給公司造成危害的可能。尤其如果他們用的是最容易被黑的密碼,像123456。”

“The problem has changed very little over the past 20 years. It’s time for everyone to take password security seriously; it’s an important first step in data security.”

“這個(gè)問題在過去20年都沒什么變化,現(xiàn)在是人們應(yīng)該認(rèn)真對待密碼的時(shí)候了,這是數(shù)據(jù)安全的第一步?!?/div>

The ten most commonly used passwords analysed in the study were:

在該項(xiàng)研究中,最常被使用的密碼是如下十個(gè):

1. 123456
2. 12345
3. 123456789
4. Password
5. iloveyou
6. princess
7. rockyou
