Listen "South Africa’s Favourite Passwords: Time to Change Yours?"
Episode Synopsis
South Africans are still using shockingly weak passwords and cybercriminals are loving every minute of it. In this episode of KayaBiz, Gugulethu Mfuphi speaks to Jan Vermeulen, Editor at MyBroadband, about the latest NordPass report revealing the country’s most commonly used passwords… and why many of us are still choosing dangerously simple logins like “admin”, “123456” and even “password”.
Jan breaks down how these weak choices expose users to hacking, how local trends compare with global habits, and why password behaviour barely changes across generations from Gen Z to the Silent Generation, everyone seems to be recycling the same predictable combinations. Kaya FM
