As if being a fan of the Dallas Cowboys isn't already hard enough.

A new study from GlobalDots found that that Cowboys fans have the most hackable passwords of any NFL team!


The study analyzed over 180 NFL-related password variations and found that those passwords related to the Cowboys were frequently compromised in data leaks.  Passwords that included any reference to the Cowboys appeared in more than 185,800 data leaks.

The top 5 most-hackable NFL team-related passwords included:

1 – Dallas Cowboys
2 – Las Vegas Raiders
3 – Pittsburgh Steelers
4 – Philadelphia Eagles
5 - Green Bay Packers

A couple of out other sports teams didn't fare much better.

Rangers passwords were the second most-hackable in the MLB, and the Stars were the third-most in the NHL.  The Mavs were the 19th most hackable in the NBA.  We're sure they were much higher before the Luka trade.
