Two decades ago only spies and systems administrators had to worry about passwords. But today you have to enter one even to do humdrum things like turning on your computer, downloading an album or buying a book online. No wonder many people use a single, simple password for everything. Analysis of password databases, often stolen from websites (something that happens with disturbing frequency), shows that the most common choices include "password", "123456" and "abc123". But using these, or any word that appears in a dictionary, is insecure. Weak passwords open the door to fraud, identity theft and breaches of privacy. Fingerprint scanners and devices that generate time-specific codes offer greater security, but they require hardware. The solution, say security researchers, is to upgrade the software in people's heads, by teaching them to choose more secure passwords.
