top_20million_password

This is a list of the top 20 million most used password according to haveibeenpwned. It features 19301991 real passwords, sorted by popularity. (all passwords have been seen 23 times or more in databreaches)

It has been made by cracking passwords in the password list available here : https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords. If you don't know, Have I Been Pwned is a great website to check if your password has ever apeared in a databreach. It shares only the hashed (weird sort of encryption) version of the passwords. I've used the ordered by prevelence ntlm version.

I've been able to crack 98.45% of the top 20 000 000 passwords. The passwords which have not been cracked are available in the not_cracked_hibp_20_ntlm file, they are hashed using ntlm (which is faster to dehash than sha1). The reason why there are fewer than expected passwords in the file is because there are passwords which are similar but don't use the same endoding. I've dedoubled the file to make sure they display only once.

This collection of passwords is only intended for experiment purposes, it's goal is not to make it easier to crack passwords, there are other wordlists available online that would make a better job at this.

If you care about your security, I would advise to use a password manager and use 2 factor authentification when ever possible.
