Adobe’s massive password leak gets turned into a playable crossword puzzle

By Jesseb Shiloh1 min readGoogle News

A man named Ben Falconer has put together a product called Adobe Crossword that uses 1000 passwords from Adobe’s massive password and turns them into 10 playable crossword puzzles. 

Adobe’s been embarrassed over the past few weeks after it was revealed that some 150 million customer records were leaked online — and that Adobe had been using some questionable methods to protect that information in the first place. In a clever spin, some of that information has been turned into a playable crossword puzzle that helps remind people just how insecure common password choices can be.
