The Default Accounts Database is a collection of accounts and passwords that are, by default, the initial passwords for specific accounts on a given computer system. Sometimes these passwords are installed out-of-box, sometimes they are automatically installed by software, and sometimes they are installed by consultants that are brought in to perform services. This list should be used as a resource for computer security consultants interested in testing the security configuration of equipment. The original Default Account Database ran up until version 3.06, which was released in late 2000 and was updated by Eric Knight in October 2003 to version 4.00. The DAD currently has no home page, and version 4.00 was retrieved from the archive.org 'Internet Archives'.
