    Most Common Password: ‘123456’, ‘admin’, Variations of Word ‘password’ Among Most Common Passwords Used by Indians in 2023, Finds Report

    New Delhi, Nov 16 : In 2023, ‘123456’ was the most common password among Indians and worldwide, a new report said on Thursday. According to the password management solution company NordPass, people used the weakest passwords for their streaming accounts in 2023. Words that refer to a specific location were also found in people’s passwords. Internet users globally frequently search for country or city names, and India is no exception, with ‘India@123’ ranking high on the country’s list.

    The word ‘admin’, which, most likely, is one of the passwords that people do not bother changing, made it among this year’s most common passwords in India and many other countries, the report found.Last year’s global winner ‘password’ did not leave Internet users’ passwords. In India, ‘password’, ‘Pass@123’, ‘Password@123’, and similar variations appeared among the most common passwords this year. Porn Ad Shown on YouTube Videos, Google Takes Action After Reddit User Flags Sexually Explicit Content in Advertisement.

    To find out about passwords Internet users employ for different platforms, researchers analyzed a 6.6 TB database of passwords, exposed by various stealer malware, which experts consider a huge threat to people’s cybersecurity. “The scariest part is that victims might not even realise that their computer is infected. Bad actors tend to hide malware in well-crafted phishing emails, imitating a legitimate organisation, such as your bank or your company,” said Tomas Smalakys, CTO at NordPass. Microsoft Unveils New Text-to-Speech Avatar Tool That Enables Users To Create Talking Avatar Videos With Text Input.

    Almost a third (31 per cent) of the world’s most popular passwords consist of purely numerical sequences, such as ‘123456789’, ‘12345’, ‘000000’, and others. According to the report, as many as 70 per cent of the passwords in this year’s global list can be cracked in less than a second. Researchers suggested Passkeys as a new form of authentication for better security. “This technology will help eliminate lousy passwords, thus making users more secure. However, as with every innovation, passwordless authentication will not be adopted overnight,” Smalakys said.

We are surrounded by a lot of superstitions that are worth keeping track of. The irrational sayings and practices often attributed to magic, spirits, astrology, luck and fear are what we call superstitions. Interestingly, folks also gave a date to observe the day to defy superstitions worldwide. Celebrated as National Defy Superstition Day annually on the September 13, the occasion gives an option to let your logical mind crush these bizarre dictates. Let us get to know about the five most common superstitions that are followed and trusted across the world for ages. 7 Interesting Superstitions Around The World That Surround The Evil Eye.

    People believe that a damaged mirror reflects a scary and uncanny image and so it may attract bad luck. The Greek myth of Narcissus tells that a cracked mirror will somehow lose its charm and snare one’s soul.

    A horseshoe is an object that is considered to be a sign of good luck and was thought of by early Europeans as something capable of warding off evil spirits. Placing a horseshoe over the home entrance with open ends is often recommended.

    The ladder with its three sides looks like a triangle with its roots in the Christian symbolism as the “Holy Trinity” of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit or God. The triangle formed by the ladder’s position is considered sacred; if one walks under it, they would ruin the sanctity of the Trinity and thus incur a penalty.

    4. Black Cats

    The most common superstition in India and across the sphere is that black cats often bring misfortune. The thought might come from the old opinions of wizards and their animal familiars, which were often said to take the form of domestic creatures like cats.

  • Learn Some Common Trade Terminologies With Your Best Trading Partner, RightFX

    To every beginner forex trader out there; how many times did you end up stumbling upon words like “spread,” “bid,” “currency pairs,” etc. while reading trade articles? While these words might perplex you, they are also the fundamental terms of the forex world.

    Do you want to learn more about these words? Then take out your pens and diaries as RightFX, your best trading partner and the fastest-growing broker, has listed a few of them in the most discernible way.

    Currency Pairs

    Though this is a currency trade, we cannot buy or sell single currency. RightFX explains that the trade takes place in currency pairs. In the pair, the first is the base currency and the second is the counter-currency.

    For e.g., in the currency pair USD/JPY, when buying the currency pair, you are buying the US dollar and selling the Japanese Yen and when selling the pair, you are buying the Japanese Yen and selling the US dollar.

    Currency Exchange Rate

    The exchange rate shows the price of the base currency expressed in terms of the counter currency. Therefore, it is called price. For example, the exchange rate of USD/JPY is 1.25. It means one US dollar costs $1.25. If there is a rise in the exchange rates of currency pairs, it means the base currency is appreciating against the counter-currency and vice versa.

    Bid and Ask price

    To explain this most simply, RightFX lets you know that each currency has two exchange prices, viz., the bid price and the ask price. The bid price states what buyers are willing to buy and the ask price refers to what sellers are willing to sell. 

    Pips

    Pip is the acronym for “Percentage in Point” and refers to the smallest increments at which an exchange rate can move up or down. Most of the time, one pip is the fourth decimal place of currency pairs. Forex traders usually use this term when talking about profit and loss.

    Going Short and Long

    These are the most commonly used words in the forex market. RightFX clarifies that going short means selling, whereas going long means buying the currency pairs.

    Founded in 2015 by Ravirajsinh Vaghela, RightFX has done a lot of forex education work for a myriad of beginner traders. RightFX’s beneficial and quality services like transparency in exchange, no commissions on deposits and withdrawals, expert advice, copy trading, providing the best trading platforms to its clients, etc., have allowed a million people to join the forex market with RightFX.

  • WWE’s Bobby Lashley: ‘Drew McIntyre and I have a ‘Never Quit’ attitude in common’

    WWE’s Bobby Lashley: ‘Drew McIntyre and I have a ‘Never Quit’ attitude in common’

    A confident Bobby Lashley discusses his WrestleMania 37 opponent Drew McIntyre, a potential feud with Brock Lesnar, and tells us why nobody can break ‘The Hurt Lock’

    ‘Journey’ is a word that resonates with Bobby Lashley; it took the 44-year-old wrestling veteran 15-odd years before he could finally claim the WWE title — one of the two flagship titles the US-based wrestling promotion offers — as his.

    On March 1, 2021, Lashley — a hulk of a man whose intimidating physique has no relation whatsoever with the warm personality he exudes during a video interaction — beat The Miz to become WWE champion for the first time in his career. “You have to love the journey. Everything I did, leading up to this point, is what that got me here. So I have got to appreciate every step of the way,” he says.

    The talented grappler that he is, Lashley’s absence from WWE’s main event scene has for long confounded wrestling fans; the sport has a strong following online aided by the many industry dirt sheets that keep the speculations — about storylines, gossip and everything in between — flowing.

    Lashley agrees that he could have had the title years ago but “I was never one of the people who got upset” when things did not go his way. “I always asked myself what was I not doing right and so I kept training. I don’t think anyone on the [WWE] roster trains harder than me. Look, some things are out of my control but the one thing that is in my hands is how hard I work to get there. That is what I tell other people too. Never hang your head because if you are doing everything that you need to be doing, you cannot be denied,” Lashley says.

    He adds: “If it takes me 25 years [to win the title], I would still be here beating people up. I would love getting into the ring with everybody in the roster to prove myself… and to legitimise myself because I am a champion that still has the challenger mentality.”

    Taking on a favourite

    But Lashley is not walking into WrestleMania — WWE’s annual flagship event — this year as a challenger. That label belongs to Drew McIntyre, the Scotsman who won the title last year takes on Lashley on day one (WrestleMania 37 is scheduled as a two-day event due to COVID-19 restrictions).

    Bobby Lashley

    McIntyre had won the title at last year’s WrestleMania, an event that had to be held behind closed doors and sans the grandeur usually associated with it due to COVID-19 outbreak.

    Lashley and McIntyre do have a few parallels: both men are in their second stints with the company, both have faced off for world titles in other wrestling promotions during their time away from WWE. Ask Lashley if there is any more the duo have in common, he counters: “Let me tell you what we did not have in common,” Lashley laughs.

    “When I first came into the WWE, I wasn’t labelled ‘The Chosen One’. So if you are a chosen one, doesn’t that mean you are going to get [the title] and it is just a matter of time?,” he asks.

    McIntyre’s first stint in the company saw him pushed by the company — from day one — as a future world champion, an idea that didn’t come to fruition eventually. However, following his return to the company, McIntyre has been crowned WWE champion twice and is aiming to win the title a third time against Lashley. “I am not taking anything away from Drew, but when you were already pencilled in [for the title], all you had to do was move in the right direction. I had to fight and knock people out of my way. However, we do have desire and a ‘Never Quit’ attitude in common,” Lashley says.

    This year’s WrestleMania is also special for all the performers. To be held in the open roof Raymond James stadium in Tampa, Florida, it will be the first time in over a year that fans will be admitted to a live WWE event. Bobby Lashley punches the air when asked what it is like to be performing in front of fans again.

    “I take my hat off to the entire roster because we didn’t skip a beat when we were asked to go and perform in a building with no fans. A lot of guys in the locker room tell me that they can’t wait for the fans to be back and on social media, there are fans telling us that they can’t wait to go to a live event. I think it will be like a love story where we come together in an embrace at WrestleMania,” he says.

    Facing off against Brock

    When it is about WrestleMania, there tends to be speculation about which way a particular match goes, who would win the title etc. One such is the rumour about Lashley facing off against Brock Lesnar.

    Bobby Lashley

    One of the biggest draws in the wrestling business even in his part-time capacity, Lesnar has not been involved in any promotion so far nor has his involvement in any storyline been made public by the company. But the rumour mill refuses to stop.

    So what does Lashley think about facing off against Lesnar, someone with whom he has been routinely compared to due to similar bulking physiques?

    “I don’t know Brock. I have met him like once, and it was just in passing — a casual shake of hands. So the speculation… that is on the fans. But if this is what they want, I am willing to give it to them because I am the champ,” he says.

    But it is not that Lashley has never previously asked to face off against Lesnar. “The people that protected Brock would say, ‘Why would he want to fight you?’ And I understood that because I didn’t have what he wanted… but now…” he says, pointing at the WWE title set beside him on a table, before continuing, “I have this. So let’s see if he wants to come back and try to get his hands on it.”

    Whether it is Brock or Drew, anyone wanting to lay their hands on the title that Lashley currently holds captive would have to do so after breaking ‘The Hurt Lock’ — a submission hold that the grappler employs to make his opponents quit, almost immediately.

    “When I put The Hurt Lock on, it is comical to me because it is the one time that I have to hold back a laugh. Once I snatch these guys, you could almost hear them go ‘Aaahh’ in this little, high pitch voice,” he laughs.

    “I can then feel the life coming out of their bodies. I felt it with Drew, I felt it with Sheamus and with Brawn Strowman, and those are three of the biggest, baddest people in the business. If those guys can’t break it, nobody can,” Lashley says, to which we ask — Not even Brock Lesnar? And pat comes the reply: “Not even Brock!”

    Watch WrestleMania 37 LIVE on SONY TEN 1 (English) and SONY TEN 3 (Hindi) channels on April 11 and April 12, 2021 from 5.30 am.

    He reminded the people of the Lachit Borfukan Gold Medal that the best cadets of the National Defense Academy are honored. The medal was instituted in 1999 following an announcement by General VP Malik that the medal would inspire defense personnel to emulate Borfukan’s bravery and sacrifice.

    The Congress described the Prime Minister’s new call as “damage control” after the gaff, which took place almost a fortnight ago.

  • ‘The courts should keep the common man in mind, not Holmes’

    ‘The courts should keep the common man in mind, not Holmes’

    The High Court of Karnataka has held that the trial court should take into account “ordinary common man” and “cosmic Sherlock Holmes” when deciding disputes over trademarks.

    “… [trial] The courts should keep in mind, not the proverbial Sherlock Holmes, but the ‘common man’ who goes to the neighborhood store with the idea of ​​buying a product of his choice – or, rather, his granddaughter’s choice – which he had only liked weeks before, And there is only an incomplete repetition of the imprint of the package due to the existence gift of its insult, ”the court said. Justice P. Krishna Bhat directed the trial court to reconsider the case between Sita Khandelwal, proprietor of Matru Ayurveda Herbals in Bangalore and N Dinesh Kumar, proprietor of Matruveda Herbals in Hyderabad.

    The “common man” has neither the wisdom of Solomon’s intelligence nor the trained eyes of Sherlock Holmes. This important aspect should exist in the mind of the trial court that where there is a similar element / elements in the mark of the plaintiff and the defendant, which is also contained in many other marks used in the same market, “the High Court stated

    It was also observed that the trial courts would have to examine whether such a common occurrence in the market prompts buyers to pay attention to other features of the respective markings and to distinguish between those characteristics.

    When a ‘trade name’ is set inside the trademark, the trial court will have to examine whether there is a possibility of confusion arising between the two trademarks, in the mind of a ‘common man’ who would see them for a fleeting second. Is, the court said

    However, the application of these principles relies successfully on the defendant indicating that common element / element marks are in widespread use in the market in which the plaintiff and defendant’s marks are also being used.

    Publicity faded in the common name for a group of Scheduled Castes

    The nature of electoral politics has ensured that a group of seven Scheduled Castes have been campaigned about the provision of the general title of ‘Devendrakula Valar’.

    Puthia Tamilagam, one of the most important parties in the campaign to bring seven communities into one fold and remove them from the list of Scheduled Castes, is no longer in the AIADMK-led coalition.
