When it comes to passwords, there are a few cardinal rules that you should always follow: don’t pick something that is easily guessable, keep passwords safe from prying eyes (preferably by using a password manager), don't recycle or reuse passwords, and don’t share your passwords with others.

More often than not, these simple rules are broken. Especially the last one. That’s the conclusion LastPass arrived to after conducting a survey on more than a thousand US consumers. People know that it’s risky to share passwords. Yet 95% of them share passwords with others.

The results of the LastPass Sharing Survey are presented below, in infographic form of course.
