Your Password Can't Possibly Be This Bad, Can It?

NordPass (the purveyor of a password manager) has assembled a list of the top 20 passwords in healthcare, based on usage by the world's largest companies. According to NordPass's analysis, the "top" 20 passwords are:

1. 123456
2. password
3. part of the company's name*
4. 12345
5. aaron431
6. part of the company's name2012*
7. Part of the company's name*
8. PART OF THE COMPANY'S NAME443*
9. company name2014*
10. linkedin
11. pass1
12. company name*
13. COMPANY NAME'S ABBREVIATION1*

15. 00000
16. 1111
17. company name*
18. 1234
19. Med

Obviously, none of these are optimal, particularly in situation where HIPAA Protected Health Information may be involved.
