How do I manage passwords securely?
Question: How do I manage passwords securely?
Answer: I mainly use a password manager/generator where I can store all of my password for different websites. The one I use is LastPass as it also has a Chrome extension that I can easily install in my Chrome browser.
This is a must for security purposes. Though it has a free version, what I use is the basic plan and pay approx. $4/month (billed annually).
If you are using the same password for everything, or easy to guess passwords, you are putting yourself at risk. LastPass helps you by generating new passwords and saving them for you.
Here is a short segment from my chrome extension training video where I discuss about LastPass.
How to add LastPass to Chrome:
-
Go to the Chrome Web Store.
-
Search "LastPass" in the search box.
-
Select "LastPass: Free Password Manager."
-
Click "Add to Chrome."
-
Click "Add extension" in the pop-up confirmation window — you should get a confirmation message once it's been installed.
