We need to offload that work to password managers, which offer secure vaults that can stand in for our memory.Ī password manager offers convenience and, more importantly, helps you create better passwords, which makes your online existence less vulnerable to password-based attacks. That might work for Memory Grand Master Ed Cooke, but most of us are not capable of such fantastic feats. (Make sure they are long, strong, and secure!) Just kidding. The safest (if craziest) way to store your passwords is to memorize them all. The problem is, most of us don’t know what makes a good password and aren’t able to remember hundreds of them anyway.
For seven years running, that’s been “123456” and “password”-the two most commonly used passwords on the web.
We know they’re good for us, but most of us are happier snacking on the password equivalent of junk food.
Password managers are the vegetables of the internet.
