Most Common Passwords in 2025: ‘123456’ and ‘Admin’ Tops the List, Research Says
A new NordPass report shows “123456” remains the most common password globally in 2025, followed by “admin” and other simple number strings. India’s list mirrors global trends, with “Pass@123” also appearing. NordPass says weak and guessable passwords remain widespread across age groups despite rising awareness. The firm recommends stronger, unique passwords and multi-factor authentication.
