Despite the vast majority of people – 89% – knowing the risks of reusing the same password, 62% of consumers are still choosing to use repeat passwords, according to new research from LastPass.
In addition, the report found that only 12% of respondents use different passwords for different accounts.
The survey, which explored the password security behaviors of 3,750 professionals across seven countries, quizzed respondents about their mindsets and behaviors surrounding online security.
