To protect your accounts, you must have a hard-to-guess password. However, it can be challenging to remember a gibberish combination of letters, numbers, and symbols, let alone create different passwords for every account you make.
Fortunately, password managers are encrypted applications that can be downloaded to provide a solution to this problem.
Should you use your Internet browser’s built-in password-saving feature? You might have seen a pop-up asking if you want to save your password to the browser’s password vault. While this may be convenient, it is not the most secure option. We recommend that you use a dedicated password manager instead.
Password managers are encrypted applications that come as an app or browser extension.
What can a password manager do for you?
- Safely store ALL your credentials,
- It will automatically retrieve credentials and fill in your account information.
- Prompt you to change insecure passwords.
- Scan the dark web for compromised personal identifiable information (PII)
- Remind you to change passcodes regularly.
- Generate secure passwords for you.
- You can download onto multiple devices to share secure passwords more easily from your phone to your computer.
