Solution to Remember Passwords
The “obvious” solution is to simply use the same password for all accounts, or use a small pool of passwords. Another solution is to choose passwords that are easy to remember. While these points can help in remembering your passwords very easily, the security issues come up once again. The most efficient thing to do is to use tools that can help you generate secure passwords and retrieve them easily as well.
Remember Passwords Best Tools
Here are some of the best tools for these purposes. Click on title for respective software site..
LastPass Password Manager
LastPass is my personal favorite for so many reasons. This password manager has a free version and a paid version, the latter costing only $1 per month. LastPass is highly rated by many tech web sites, and rightly so. It is very easy to use, and you really need to remember only one password – your LastPass password.
Once you have created your account, you may opt to use the web site itself to generate and store (remember) passwords. Alternatively, you can use the application or extension for your preferred browser. It even works on mobile devices! Indeed, ever since I started using LastPass, I have never had problems remembering passwords anymore.
KeePass Password Manager
KeePass is another highly rated password manager, which is totally free as it is from the open source community. This desktop application does what LastPass does – remember all the passwords that you store so that you will only have to remember one password.
KeePass is compatible with Windows, although there is another version called KeePassX for OS X and Linux. While it does work, this version needs more work in terms of user experience.
1Password Password Manager
1Password is the password manager of choice of many Mac users. More than simply managing your passwords, it also autofills forms. Unlike KeePass, it can be integrated into your browser, which makes the user experience much better.
Just like with the two preceding password managers, you only have to remember one password with 1Password. The drawback is the price – $35!
RoboForm
Not a Mac user but want something like 1Password? You can use RoboForm instead. It functions much like 1Password, but also adds the ability to create different identities to use in autofilling web forms. That can be very handy if you use different information for different web sites. The good news is that RoboForm has a free version.
The bad news is that it has limited features, and if you really want to make the most of it, it is better to get the premium version, which costs $30. Whichever password manager you choose to use, you will certainly appreciate the security and the convenience.
Can’t get enough of anything shiny and related to tech; will also pay attention to non-shiny things as long as they have something to do with computers and gadgets.
