Think your password is unique and clever? A new inforgraphic from security firm Rapid7 has revealed the top passwords stolen from this week's LinkedIn security breach. There are hundreds of duplicates and patterns associated with the compromised log-in information.
"Link" was the number one hacked password, according to Rapid7. But many other LinkedIn users also picked passwords -- "work" and "job" for example -- that were associated with the career site's content.
