Researchers at Georgia Tech’s College of Computing found that 75% of the world’s most popular websites fail to meet minimum password security standards, leaving users at an increased risk for cyber attacks.

Only a few websites followed standard security guidelines, with most sticking to outdated rules from 2004.
