Password Managers
≒ One memorable password for all
sites should be avoided
especially if used also for
purchases / banking, etc. (If you
can remember it easily, chances
are it can be cracked!)
≒ Remembering numerous
passwords is near impossible
and post-it notes is not a long-
term solution (especially if
multiple devices)
≒ Look for: price, form filling, cross-
platform sharing (e.g. with
mobile), password capture /
generation, secure notes, etc.
