1Password only because my dad got free serials for being a BETA user like 2 years ago.
my passwords are all the same
I will destroy IsisI got it from my daddy
I randomly generate passwords then remember them by using mnemonics, I also have a little red book which I write them down in but I lose it often and then have to reset them...
I just use my head, although I should probably generate longer random strings to use as passwords. Would never use a password manager on a portable device that could be easily stolen; physical security isn't so much of an issue for a desktop (especially one as heavy as mine), but software security will never be flawless. As long as there's physical access to the machine or the database can be copied off the machine in any way either via physical access or via a back door, all it would take to access it would be a brute force attack.
To overcome any vulnerabilities should your password list be accessed, you could use an enigma simulator (or other method of encryption) to encode all your passwords using a rotor start position (or password) matching all of them - easy enough to remember and nobody will know (a) that it's been encrypted at all, (b) what it's been encrypted with, and (c) the code/password used for the encryption.
1Password is great. It's a bit expensive but well worth the price once you get to using it exclusively.
Just an update, I've switched to lastpass![]()
Funny story about this thread;
When I saw this thread, I chuckled a little an was gonna comment that I use my head for passwords and don't need an app to do it for me, well- when I was at work today I went to login to my computer and for the life of me, I couldn't remember it. I don't know why, or how I forgot, but it reminded me of this thread. Maybe I should look into some of the comments password savers.
Thought everyone would/could have a laugh today.![]()
