Employees Share Average of 6 Passwords With Co-Workers

October 4, 2018

According to a DarkReading post, a study by password manager LastPass of 43,000 organizations that use its service shows that an employee, on average, shares six passwords with his or her co-workers and half of employees (oh good grief) reuse passwords among work and personal accounts.

There is a bit of very good news: 45% of businesses are using multifactor authentication (MFA), up from 24.5% last year.

But oh, the deadly sin of password sharing . . .
