What It Is
A password manager is a tool that safely stores all your passwords in one place, so you only need to remember one master password.
Why It Matters
It helps you create strong, unique passwords without having to memorize them. This reduces the risk of hacking and password theft.
Simple Steps to Follow
- Choose a trusted password manager (LastPass, 1Password, Bitwarden, etc.)
- Create a strong master password
- Save each login automatically as you browse
- Let the manager generate strong passwords for new accounts
Common Mistakes to Avoid
- Storing passwords in notebooks or unprotected files
- Sharing your master password
- Using the same master password elsewhere
