New Delhi, Nov 18 (TIWN) In India, the most popular password is "password" and not "123456" as has been widely speculated. Interestingly, Japan is the only other country that had the same top password as India, new research showed on Thursday.

Other common passwords people use in India are “iloveyou”, “krishna”, “sairam” and “omsairam”, among others. According to new research by NordPass which is a proprietary password manager, predictable numerical and keyboard sequences are particularly popular in India.  “Passwords such as 12345 and variations of qwerty were ranked high up in the lists. Worldwide, these combinations are also quite popular, as well as localised versions of qwerty (for example, aazerty’ in French speaking countries),” the research showed.
