Today, May 2nd, is World Password Day. Each year, this serves as an annual reminder to take action and steps to ensure our digital lives are secure. Now, more than ever with data breaches relying on poor password management to gain access to sensitive data, this day has become a cornerstone in promoting cybersecurity awareness by underscoring the vulnerabilities inherent in traditional password-based security.
Passwords, while being the most common form of authentication, are also their weakest link. They are often easily guessed, reused across multiple sites, or stolen through phishing attacks. The 2023 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report highlighted that 49% of breaches involved credential data and that phishing continues to be one of the most common tools for stealing these credentials. Password-dependent security frameworks are inherently weak and vulnerable to attacks, which can lead to unauthorized access and catastrophic data breaches.
