Are you using a password manager

[GGurol]

I used Roboform a decade ago. I even bought a license key but they fucked their customers after requiring to buy another license since Firefox updated to another version (at this time it was not often to see a new browser release) Since I moved to LastPass, using it for years now and it's the most useful tool on the web. (not sure if it has 2FA)

Just after your comment, a request occurred on my mind for LastPass. I would like to try, but transferring the identities from roboform to LastPass, will probably kill me all the weekend. Thank you for suggestion.

I never did use a pass manager. Hence, I don't know how trustworthy those are. I have commented here only for sharing my tricks to generate password and possible way to be safe.
I use 4 mail account for all of my accounts. I only know the password of my mail. Those are written in paper though. On other platform, whereas I need to create a password, I create a totally random password like- 272@iSHdianAkal bla, bla, bla. Every passwords are different from one to other. Whenever I need to login, I just need to reset password. It's quite boring though, but it's okay for me because I don't sign up in a place where I barely visit. I only sign up on places where I always like to visit like bitcointalk. I think it's a good way to be secured.

I have read a lot of hacking incidents I don't know each one story they all said it was hacked, but is it safe to use a password manager like Roboform, keypass and dashlane to manage all your online login details and how safe are these devices.

No, I'm not using any of that. I just have a wallet that has good back up feature. The wallet I'm using has HODLER Secure Backup (HSB) which is an innovative feature developed by HODLER team. It will allow the user to create a backup of their seed alternative to the standard paper backup. This feature creates a PDF file containing a QR code of the seed. The PDF file is then packed as an encrypted archive. This has state of the art AES256 algorithm to encrypt the archive, and it can only be decrypted by using the password you typed while creating a wallet. This way I don't need any kindnof password manager.

Nope. I don't like the idea of a third party program being in charge of all that stuff, even more so when you have to pay for it. I also don't fancy the idea of everything hanging on one password. I'll stick to 2FA and my own astonishing abilities to remember what's needed.

Me either. 2FA is all good for now and already have it backup my keywords onto somewhere safe. Having a third-party app is like giving away your password to your fortunate. Even sometimes it's hard to remember some details so taking be more cautious and won't depend to an app is more fine at all.

Really, even on google I didn't let my password remember it.

Nowadays it is much needed to save our passwords so we can feel to use different types of password manager. So I have been using keey pass which is really trustable and fully free. I would also decide to use LastPass what I know about this passwords manager it is also a helful tool and makes secure from the various unknown web.

I've gone through several different options for managing the password. So far I've tried 1password, lastpass, keepass, enpass and bitwarden.

At the end I've gone with 1Password just due to to the ease of use as it supports organisations and password sharing. If I were just storing my own passwords I would probably go with Bitwarden.

Ease of use is a good point, if something is too complicated to use, it won't get used. Keepass was always a hassle with multiple devices and getting passwords synced between these.I've got 400 unique passwords currently stored, with every critical account protected with yubikey when available so in the case of someone getting to my password manager the critical accounts are still in the clear. If yubikey isnt available I've gone with TOTP based 2FA.

Also be smart with what to store in the password manager. For example, I haven't stored any credit cards. Also keeping your TOTP there kind of defeats the purpose of 2FA.

Yes, I am using a password manager but at storing the passwords in the simple text is not recommended at all. One should develop his own unique and difficult characters/digit/symbol pattern to encrypt passwords and then storing such passwords in the password managers so even in the case of compromisation of the server, we won't suffer much.

[sahtesauce1973]

I use KeePass. It's open source and passwords are only stored locally (unless you store them yourself somewhere else..). Can't live without it anymore.

[retprogramisto]

I just use offline encrypted text files for passwords.

I do not use anything like this. I do not Believe any password manager. if I talk about the last pass, this is the only store for password and email. My suggestion, create your own unique password, such us capital latter, small later, number, and symbol. remember one thing, Do not use the similar password to all accounts. Use different types of password for the different account. Hacker can not hack easily any account. I hope your account will be secure.

How do you expect people to remember all their passwords if they need a unique password with [capital letter, lower case, numbers, and symbols] for every account? That's when you need a password manager to store passwords that look like this: "!FO9;mvgyPv7m$OGPv, (my BTT password looks like this, and it was generated by KeePass - an open source and offline password manager).

You are right, it is not possible to remember many passwords. Generally, I have type in text my all password, and my all important text file I store in my laptop and my pen drive. and sometimes I write in my personal book. A little trouble, but Feel secure.

another vote for keepass

So far I have not used a password manager yet in fact, i do not feel to use any kind of password manager. Users who need to use a password manager then I would like to suggest them if they ready to pay RoboForm is the best for them. Otherwise, they can use a full free password manager KeePass.
