Your business’s passwords are still too weak

Still Using Weak Passwords? Hackers Are Hoping You Are.

We get it—passwords aren’t exactly the most exciting part of your business. But here’s the truth: if your team is still using weak or recycled passwords, you’re leaving the door wide open for cybercriminals to walk right in.

And yes, this is still happening. A lot.

Despite years of warnings from IT professionals (hi, that’s us 👋), the most common business password today is still “123456.”
Others on the list? “password”, “qwerty123”, and even people’s own names or email addresses.

In other words, hackers aren’t even trying that hard. They don’t have to. The weak spots are already there.

Why It Matters for SMBs

Many small and mid-sized businesses assume they’re too small to be a target. But that’s exactly what makes them prime targets. Attackers go after the easy wins—and businesses that haven’t tightened up password security are at the top of that list.

A single stolen password can open up access to:

• Emails and communication tools

• Financial records

• Client data

• Cloud storage

• And more

The result? Major downtime, financial damage, and serious trust issues with your clients.

What Can You Do?

Let’s keep this simple:

✅ Use strong, unique passwords.
We’re talking randomly generated strings—not your dog’s name or “iloveyou”.

✅ Deploy a password manager.
It’ll create and store complex passwords for your team (no more sticky notes or reused logins).

✅ Turn on two-factor authentication (2FA).
Even if a password gets stolen, 2FA makes it much harder for hackers to actually log in.

✅ Explore passkeys.
Passkeys use biometrics or device-based verification instead of traditional passwords. They’re faster, more secure, and nearly impossible to phish.
