It’s here! The 2024 update to the Hive Systems Password Table that’s been shown and written about in the news, published by universities, and shared by thousands of companies across the globe. How did we make this table and what’s behind the math? Read on!

Since 2020, we’ve conducted a lot of research to develop and present the Hive Systems Password Table. But for those of you that want to learn more about how we make the table - then you’ve come to the right place! A lot more goes into it than just pretty colors, and while the data fits nicely into the table above, things aren’t as as simple as they look. So let’s talk through the data, our assumptions, and oh, you’re going to see a LOT of variations of the password table (including one that’s all purple 😱).
