I’m Either Famous, or Dumb…

January 21, 2010 in Authentication, Authorisation, Identity Management by nicole

According to recent reports, nicole is the 11th most likely password in a survey of one million (hacked) user accounts.

This leads me to the following conclusions:

  1. My impact on the access management world is so significant, I have become a standard password….OR
  2. People called Nicole are generally so dumb they are the most likely to use their own name as their password.

I’ll leave it to you to decide ;-)

3. People called Nicole are the ultimate girlfriend, as their name sticks in memory
4. People called Nicole embody the ultimate green solution, as their name may be recycled into a password
5. Nicole is typed using only the mid part of the keyboard, thus supporting people with no thumbs and removed small digits
