Reusing the same password everywhere is the #1 online risk. The solution is one word: a manager.
Why it’s essential
It generates and stores unique and complex passwords. You only remember one master password.
A password manager creates strong, different passwords for each site. You only need to remember one main password to access them all.
How to choose
- iCloud Keychain: free, integrated into the Apple ecosystem.
- Bitwarden, 1Password: multi-platform, very complete.
If you use Bitwarden, it can create a 16-character password like “x7#Kp9!Lm2$Qv5@Rt” for your bank and another like “aB3$kL8!pQ2#mN9” for your email. You only need to remember your Bitwarden master password.
The good extra reflex
Enable two-factor authentication wherever possible. Even a stolen password becomes useless.
