500 Worst Passwords Poster

Here’s a poster you might give to your favorite school’s computer teacher, your hard-to-buy-for IT manager, or your favorite least favorite Help desk technician.Then again, given the nature of some of the passwords on this list, you might not.

The artist says, “I came across a list of the 500 worst passwords according to Mark Burnett (author of Perfect Password Selection and Protection), so I decided to draw them and then screenprint a limited edition print.” The print is $30 and available from kateconsumption's Etsy shop.
