I have seen way too many users and systems that still have the default
password from the install still in use years later. Aren't all NT
Administrator passwords either <blank> or "password"?

By the way, when troubleshooting a PIX to VPN Client connectivity problem,
the first thing TAC wanted changed was the pre-shared key to "cisco1234".
More than half of the pre-shared keys that I have seen since then are all
"cisco1234".

Using these passwords and/or keys makes your system as secure as you are at
home when you lock the screen door!

"cisco" and "sanfran" are only standard passwords in cisco classrooms.

In real life - there are no such thing as standard passwords.

Hi colleagues,

do you know what the Cisco standard passwords are ? As far as I remember,
they are 'cisco' and 'sanfran', but I am not sure (also not sure about
lower/upper case).
Thanks for your help in advance.
