Cyber-Ark, the Privileged Identity Management experts, says that the results of an analysis into 28,000 real world passwords - apparently stolen from a well-known Web site and posted on the Internet - reveals that a sizeable minority of IT users are seriously naive when it comes to setting their own passwords.
"The analysis, carried out by Information Week, shows that 14 per cent of the users were using sequential password combinations such as 1234, 123456789 and QWERTY. A further 16 per cent, meanwhile used their first name as a password," said Adam Bosnian, VP Products and Strategy.
