Password Reuse Is Still Everywhere

Studies consistently find 50โ€“65% of people reuse passwords. Here is the updated 2025 data and what it means for your personal and organisational risk.

This guide covers the key concepts, practical steps, and common mistakes to avoid when addressing this aspect of password security.

Best practices

  • Use a dedicated password manager for all credentials
  • Enable multi-factor authentication wherever supported
  • Use unique passwords for every account
  • Regularly audit accounts for breached credentials
  • Generate passwords with a cryptographically random generator like PassGeni

How PassGeni helps

PassGeni addresses this challenge directly through its AI-seeded generation engine. Passwords are created client-side using JavaScript's crypto.getRandomValues() API โ€” no data ever leaves your browser.
