The list comes from [SplashData](https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/the-10-worst-passwords-of-2019-and-tips-to-create-more-secure-ones/), after they analyzed *over 5 million leaked passwords* <b>from previous data breaches</b> and came up with the worst list of [commonly used passwords that you see above](https://local12.com/news/nation-world/the-worst-passwords-of-2019-are-12-20-2019). 

Security [experts have been warning for years](https://www.nzdoctor.co.nz/article/print-archive/weak-passwords-mean-hackers-open-season-it-expert-warns) that people should put more creativity and effort into their passwords. Some suggest getting rid of passwords [altogether](https://www.cnbc.com/2019/09/24/dont-make-these-9-biggest-password-mistakes-warns-fraud-expert-and-ex-con-artist.html), urging that [bioidentification](https://thenextweb.com/security/2018/12/19/this-is-the-future-of-authentication-according-to-security-experts/) is the future direction to take.
