The Top 500 Worst Passwords of All Time

The Top 500 Worst Passwords of All Time

November 30th, 2008 by admin in News, Password Info

From the moment people started using passwords, it didn’t take long to realize how many people picked the very same passwords over and over. Even the way people misspell words is consistent. In fact, people are so predictable that most hackers make use of lists of common passwords just like these. To give you some insight into how predictable humans are, the following is a list of the 500 most common passwords. If you see your password on this list, please change it immediately. Keep in mind that every password listed here has been used by at least hundreds if not thousands of other people.

There are some interesting passwords on this list that show how people try to be clever, but even human cleverness is predictable. For example, look at these passwords that I found interesting:

ncc1701 The ship number for the Starship Enterprise
thx1138 The name of George Lucas’s first movie, a 1971 remake of an earlier student project
qazwsx Follows a simple pattern when typed on a typical keyboard
666666 Six sixes
7777777 Seven sevens
ou812 The title of a 1988 Van Halen album
8675309 The number mentioned in the 1982 Tommy Tutone song. The song supposedly caused an epidemic of people dialing 867- 5309 and asking for “Jenny”

“…Approximately one out of every nine people uses at least one password on the list shown in Table 9.1! And one out of every 50 people uses one of the top 20 worst passwords..”

Lists the top 500 worst passwords of all time, not considering character case. Don’t blame me for the offensive words; you were the ones who picked these, not me.

To our non-USA readers: Broadband/IPTV Questions

Out of town Friends,

As a former Online ShoutCast Radio provider (500,000 unique sessions from 1999 to 2004) I have had my eyes and ears on the development of IPTV. I've watched how the cost of online digital distribution of multimedia content have progressed over the past 4 years. Now that IPTV has started to rear its wonderful head here in the US (see VIPTV, IP-Prime, Sky Angels, P2P, BT and all of the major Cable/Satellite-delivered networks, etc.) PLUS many of us metropolitans are getting pretty fat pipes to the 'net, we're are still literally 2-3 (or more) years behind you all!

How do your communities overcome the bandwidth bottle-necking due to such large bandwidth consumption by us consumers?

I know that if all my neighbors would watch as much streaming online HiDef programming as my family does each day we'd all be completely unsatisfied! We are just now starting to see/hear reports about ISP's, Telco's, WiFi providers and Cable companies here in the U.S. are beginning to throttle (i.e slow down) their subscriber's broadband access due to high individual consumption, rather large consumption I must say. Satellite broadband providers have been doing this for years, from its inception in fact, seeing satellite bandwidth delivered via the Clarke Belt is 10X more expensive than terrestrial bandwidth.

HDTV downloads and especially streams all take a large pipe, a rather large pipe to feed the 100's or even 1,000's of people at any given moment, on demand like they do. The move here in the U.S. is for Telco's to get into the act. There are dozens of them who have already secured OC192 (or higher) connections just to serve their customers. That's a lot of bandwidth by today's standards BUT it's going to keep getting worse for them (and better for us). Are the costs associated with starting up such a venture realistic for your local bandwidth provider? Will this open up opportunities for new companies who don't have the burden of an established infrastructure to maintain/upgrade?

Can you tell us how things are progressing in your neck of the woods, countries, cities and towns so we can prepare here is the U.S.? How are Internet providers coping? How are they handling things? What are the new developments to overcoming bottle-necking? Are you satisfied? Are there any new trends we need to look out for? Are there some producers/web sites that stand out for you?

Please link to stories, reports and message board posts to help us make sense of all of this, OK?

Thanks in advance.

Sincerely,

Thomas William

EchoStar Pitches Telco TV Package

This is exactly what our partners need to provide triple play to 100% of their customers and beyond!

EchoStar Pitches Telco TV Package
NOVEMBER 13, 2008
Discuss >

ANAHEIM, Calif. -- TelcoTV -- Well, folks, it looks like satellite TV figurehead Charlie Ergen, chairman and CEO of Dish Network Corp. , has his hungry eyes on a slice of the IPTV systems market too.

EchoStar Technologies LLC, the set-top and technology unit that split off from Dish Network early this year, is branching further into the telco world with a strategy centered on an all-MPEG-4 video satellite-fed distribution system and an integrated "turn-key" play that bundles in EchoStar's own IPTV set-tops, middleware, and conditional access (CA) system. (See EchoStar Ready to Split.)

EchoStar is pitching the concept to Tier 2 and Tier 3 telcos, though it could also be suitable for cable operators that migrate to IPTV platforms.

The video transport part of the package, introduced in 2007 under the VIP-TV banner, will compete head on with Avail Media Inc. and SES Americom 's IP Prime service. (See EchoStar Unveils ViP-TV.)

VIP-TV's present "proposed" programming transport channel lineup comprises 300 video and music channels. More than 40 are in high definition. Here's what VIP-TV GM Dan Daines told LRTV about it in July:

EchoStar is combining that offering with a more extensive IPTV platform that uses the NagraStar conditional access system (from the Dish-Nagravision SA joint venture), and EchoStar's own middleware and interactive program guide. EchoStar is also in discussions regarding the integration of conditional access systems from other IPTV players, including Latens Systems Ltd. , Verimatrix Inc. , and Widevine Technologies Inc. , according to EchoStar VP of sales and marketing Michael Hawkey.

EchoStar has also developed two IPTV set-tops: an HD-DVR box that can tune to two televisions or provide picture-in-picture in one TV; and a lower-end high-definition box, though this can be converted into a DVR by linking it to an external storage device with USB 2.0 connections.

Although the VIP-TV transport service is ready to roll now, the other turn-key elements should start to enter lab trials early next year, Hawkey says.

But how does EchoStar expect to stand out in a crowded field? Hawkey thinks telcos will give EchoStar more than a look because it's basing everything on an integrated system that's been "tried and tested" to millions of customers: That's a reference to the technology base used by Dish Network.

Beyond that, EchoStar is also looking to add more advanced features, including multi-room DVR functionality and some place-shifting applications from its Sling Media Inc. division.

If all that strategy sounds familiar, it should. EchoStar is also trying to win business in the cable industry with set-tops that use the tru2way platform. The company has acknowledged that winning cable's trust will be a significant challenge, but remains confident MSOs will give EchoStar a shot if the tech firm can offer competitive pricing and advanced product feature sets. (See EchoStar Blazing Way to Tru2way .)

Broadband Data Improvement Act Passes Senate, House

I finally read the Act and see it as a step in the right direction.

# # # # # # # # # # # #

Broadband Data Improvement Act Passes Senate, House. A.K.A. Finding Out Why the US is Falling Further and Further Behind.
By sascha
Created 2008-09-30 15:01

In a major win for the public interest, the Broadband Data Improvement Act passed the Senate (on September 26th) and the House (on September 29th). Due to amendments, it now goes back to the Senate for final approval (should be pro-forma) before it lands on George Bush's desk.

With the United States falling further and further behind a host of other countries, the question on many people's minds (including the folks over at Point-Topic [1] who created this graphic) is, "Why is this happening?":

[2]
[Yes, that's the United States, chugging along ever closer to the bottom of the pack. Click here [3] for a full-size image.]

Senator Inouye and Congressman Markey have been pushing for the passage of this bill for quite some time -- resurrecting the idea from congress to congress. The Act, with its explicit purpose "To improve the quality of Federal and State data regarding the availability and quality of broadband services and to promote the deployment of affordable broadband services to all parts of the Nation [4]." has drawn widespread opposition from telcos who've claimed that our current data collection efforts are "good enough." Full text of the Act can be found here [5].

Among it's mandates, the Broadband Data Improvement Act requires that:

Demographic Information for Unserved Areas- As part of the inquiry required by subsection (b), the Commission shall compile a list of geographical areas that are not served by any provider of advanced telecommunications capability (as defined by section 706(c)(1) of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 (47 U.S.C. 157nt note)) and to the extent that data from the Census Bureau is available, determine, for each such unserved area
(1) the population;
(2) the population density; and
(3) the average per capita income.

For those of us studying the digital divide, these data will provide much-needed information about the nature of underserved communities. Of course, they could also paint a damning picture of systematic, institutionalized redlining of poor and rural constituencies.

The Act also calls for an in-depth international comparison of broadband service levels, speeds, and pricing. 75 communities in 25 countries, matched "to the extent possible [by] population size, population density, topography, and demographic profile...comparable to the population size, population density, topography, and demographic profile of various communities within the United States" will be assessed.

Even more importantly, the Act requires a "Consumer Survey of Broadband Service Capability" -- in other words, it requires collection of real-world information on what's happening with broadband services in the United states. According to the Act:

For the purpose of evaluating, on a statistically significant basis, the national characteristics of the use of broadband service capability, the Commission shall conduct and make public periodic surveys of consumers in urban, suburban, and rural areas in the large business, small business, and residential consumer markets to determine
(A) the types of technology used to provide the broadband service capability to which consumers subscribe;
(B) the amounts consumers pay per month for such capability;
(C) the actual data transmission speeds of such capability;
(D) the types of applications and services consumers most frequently use in conjunction with such capability;
(E) for consumers who have declined to subscribe to broadband service capability, the reasons given by such consumers for declining such capability;
(F) other sources of broadband service capability which consumers regularly use or on which they rely; and
(G) any other information the Commission deems appropriate for such purpose.

Along with requirements to investigate how best to collect a host of different metrics and a mandate for states to likewise engage in broadband data collection efforts, the Broadband Data Improvement Act represents an important step forward in addressing the broadband market failure gripping the United States. Though the Act's loopholes may yet allow for further obfuscation of critically important data, overall, this Act adds a great deal of momentum to efforts to increase digital inclusion and foster universal, affordable broadband access.

Though our solution is designed to be self-installed, about 3-5% of the people request a professional install.

"What happens when I sell a system to someone out of our DMS that wants a professional installation?" has been a common question. Our relationships in this industry give us access to a network of over 2,500 certified technicians. Match that with our Online Activation System (OASys ™) and you have a solution for launching CONUS marketing campaign that can get your new subscribers installed in less than 72 hours!
