在信息技术如此发达的现代社会，记忆力差真是无法生存……
原因是，每个人都有一堆的用户名和密码要记忆：电子邮件、通讯软件、移动支付、视频网站……很多平台都要求用户注册成会员，每次还要登陆才能使用。

于是，记性不好或懒惰的人往往索性就把密码设置成了简单、易记的数字或字母组合。
英国情报机构政府通讯总部（GCHQ）下属的国家网络安全中心（ National Cyber Security Centre）最近就对英国的网民发出了红色警告，提醒他们赶紧升级自己的网络安全设置，原因是，该机构研究发现全球有2300万被攻击破解的账号密码是简单的数字组合“123456”。
A survey by National Cyber Security Centre (NCSC) – part of spy agency GCHQ – found nearly one in two people expect to have money stolen from them online by 2021.
国家网络安全中心（NCSC）——情报机构政府通讯总部（GCHQ）的一部分——调查发现，预计到2021年每两人中就有一人的钱在网上被偷。
It also revealed that only 15 percent of British internet users say they know a great deal about protecting themselves online.、
该机构还披露，只有15%的英国网民说他们知道如何在网上保护自己。
The findings come ahead of a major CyberUK 2019 conference in Glasgow this week, organised by the NCSC. The research also included a list of the most commonly breached passwords.
由NCSC组织的CyberUK 2019会议本周将在格拉斯哥举行。这些发现提前在这个会议之前发布。这个研究还列举了一系列最经常被破解的密码。
It showed the log-on ‘123456’ was hacked over 23 million times worldwide and ‘123456789’ almost eight million times. Other log-on that were regularly compromised included ‘qwerty’ – the series of letters which appear in a line on a computer keyboard – as well as just ‘password’ and even ‘1111111’.
研究显示，在全球范围，登陆密码“123456”被破解的次数超过2300万次，密码“123456789”被破解将近800万次。其他常被破解的密码包括“qwerty”——这一连串字母出现在电脑键盘的同一行中——以及“password”(密码)，甚至“1111111”。

此外，一些英文人名和球队的名字等也常常被设置为密码。
The most common name to be used in passwords was Ashley, followed by Michael, Daniel, Jessica and Charlie.
最常被用来设置成密码的人名包括Ashley, Michael, Daniel, Jessica和Charlie。
When it comes to Premier League football teams in guessable passwords, Liverpool are champions and Chelsea are second. Blink-182 topped the charts of music acts.

因此，NCSC的技术总监Ian Levy博士敦促网友加强他们的登录密码，并且给了一些设置密码的建议。
He said: ‘We understand that cyber security can feel daunting to a lot of people but the NCSC has published lots of easily applicable advice to make you much less vulnerable.
他说：“我们理解网络安全问题吓到了许多人，但国家网络安全中心已经发布了许多切实可行的建议，帮助你提高安全。”
‘Password re-use is a major risk that can be avoided – nobody should protect sensitive data with something that can be guessed, like their first name, local football team or favourite band. Using hard-to-guess passwords is a strong first step and we recommend combining three random but memorable words.
“重复使用密码的风险是可以规避的-人们不应该使用那些容易被猜出来的密码来保护自己的敏感信息，像他们的名字，当地的球队或最喜欢的乐队名。使用难以猜测的密码是加强安全的第一步，我们还建议用三个随机但易于记忆的单词组合起来的密码”。
‘Be creative and use words memorable to you, so people can’t guess your password.’
“富有想象力的，使用对你来说容易记住的词，这样别人就猜不出你的密码了”。
