Cybersecurity company NordPass released a list of the most commonly used passwords by Indonesian citizens in 2023.

To obtain this list, NordPass collaborated with independent cybersecurity researchers to analyze a 4.3 terabyte (TB) password database extracted from various public sources, including the dark web.

NordPass claims that no personal data was purchased or collected during this research.

They found that 7 out of the 10 most common passwords used by Indonesian citizens could be cracked in less than one second.

The most popular password was "123456," used 221,098 times in 2023.

Other commonly used passwords included "admin," "user," "password," "bismillah," and various sequential number combinations.

Here is a complete list of the 10 most commonly used passwords by Indonesian citizens in 2023, according to NordPass:

1. 123456: used 221,098 times
2. admin: used 118,903 times
3. 12345678: used 56,535 times
4. 12345: used 40,501 times
5. 123456789: used 17,317 times
6. user: used 16,058 times
7. password: used 14,546 times
8. bismillah: used 10,660 times
9. admin123: used 10,660 times
10. theworldinyourhand: used 9,228 times

NordPass shared several tips for creating secure passwords that are not easily cracked by hackers.

First, use a complex combination of 20 characters consisting of a mix of uppercase and lowercase letters, numbers, and special symbols.

"Avoid using easily guessable information such as birth dates, names, or common words," NordPass wrote in its report.

Next, always check password security regularly and do not use the same password on multiple different websites or services.
