September 2019 – Newsletter, Why You Need A Password Manager

A password manager is the most important thing you can do to keep your data safe. While you probably already know that simple and easy to guess passwords – like a pet’s name or simply ‘password’ – are not effective, have you considered the harm in reusing the same ones across multiple sites? If just one account is compromised in a data breach, hackers can then use that password to hack your other, potentially more valuable accounts. A solution to this problem is a password manager; a secure, automated, all-digital to generate and store strong passwords in one place. A password manager will ask that you remember one master password, while it remembers everything else. It will also alert you if you’re reusing a password or creating a weak and easy to guess one. While the process may seem intimidating at first, you’ll soon wonder how you ever lived without the management.
