在信息技術如此發達的現代社會,記憶力差真是無法生存……
原因是,每個人都有一堆的用户名和密碼要記憶:電子郵件、通訊軟件、移動支付、視頻網站……很多平台都要求用户註冊成會員,每次還要登陸才能使用。

於是,記性不好或懶惰的人往往索性就把密碼設置成了簡單、易記的數字或字母組合。
英國情報機構政府通訊總部(GCHQ)下屬的國家網絡安全中心( National Cyber Security Centre)最近就對英國的網民發出了紅色警告,提醒他們趕緊升級自己的網絡安全設置,原因是,該機構研究發現全球有2300萬被攻擊破解的賬號密碼是簡單的數字組合“123456”。
A survey by National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) – part of spy agency GCHQ – found nearly one in two people expect to have money stolen from them online by 2021.
國家網絡安全中心(NCSC)——情報機構政府通訊總部(GCHQ)的一部分——調查發現,預計到2021年每兩人中就有一人的錢在網上被偷。
It also revealed that only 15 percent of British internet users say they know a great deal about protecting themselves online.、
該機構還披露,只有15%的英國網民説他們知道如何在網上保護自己。
The findings come ahead of a major CyberUK 2019 conference in Glasgow this week, organised by the NCSC. The research also included a list of the most commonly breached passwords.
由NCSC組織的CyberUK 2019會議本週將在格拉斯哥舉行。這些發現提前在這個會議之前發佈。這個研究還列舉了一系列最經常被破解的密碼。
It showed the log-on ‘123456’ was hacked over 23 million times worldwide and ‘123456789’ almost eight million times. Other log-on that were regularly compromised included ‘qwerty’ – the series of letters which appear in a line on a computer keyboard – as well as just ‘password’ and even ‘1111111’.
研究顯示,在全球範圍,登陸密碼“123456”被破解的次數超過2300萬次,密碼“123456789”被破解將近800萬次。其他常被破解的密碼包括“qwerty”——這一連串字母出現在電腦鍵盤的同一行中——以及“password”(密碼),甚至“1111111”。

此外,一些英文人名和球隊的名字等也常常被設置為密碼。
The most common name to be used in passwords was Ashley, followed by Michael, Daniel, Jessica and Charlie.
最常被用來設置成密碼的人名包括Ashley, Michael, Daniel, Jessica和Charlie。
When it comes to Premier League football teams in guessable passwords, Liverpool are champions and Chelsea are second. Blink-182 topped the charts of music acts.
而很容易猜到的英超聯賽球隊名字的密碼中,利物浦(Liverpool)位列第一,緊隨其後的是切爾西(Chelsea)。而樂隊Blink-182在樂隊名榜上位列第一。

因此,NCSC的技術總監Ian Levy博士敦促網友加強他們的登錄密碼,並且給了一些設置密碼的建議。
He said: ‘We understand that cyber security can feel daunting to a lot of people but the NCSC has published lots of easily applicable advice to make you much less vulnerable.
他説:“我們理解網絡安全問題嚇到了許多人,但國家網絡安全中心已經發布了許多切實可行的建議,幫助你提高安全。”
‘Password re-use is a major risk that can be avoided – nobody should protect sensitive data with something that can be guessed, like their first name, local football team or favourite band. Using hard-to-guess passwords is a strong first step and we recommend combining three random but memorable words.
“重複使用密碼的風險是可以規避的-人們不應該使用那些容易被猜出來的密碼來保護自己的敏感信息,像他們的名字,當地的球隊或最喜歡的樂隊名。使用難以猜測的密碼是加強安全的第一步,我們還建議用三個隨機但易於記憶的單詞組合起來的密碼”。
‘Be creative and use words memorable to you, so people can’t guess your password.’
“富有想象力的,使用對你來説容易記住的詞,這樣別人就猜不出你的密碼了”。
