Attackers are continuously finding new ways to steal your password, and their techniques are getting better every day. That’s why a strong password combined with a second authentication method is a must if you want to keep your accounts secure.
This article aims to provide you with the information needed to take that extra step and secure your accounts using modern techniques. While there is a small learning curve, once you get set up life becomes so much easier.
There are many password managers available for the purpose of this article and the one DerwentSec recommends will be Bitwarden.com. Bitwarden is Open source, meaning anyone can view and verify its source code online at any time which is good for security conscious users.
Password managers allow users to create strong unique passwords which would take an attacker 100s of years to guess allowing users to be confident the account will remain secure.
Bitwarden can be accessed from multiple devices, with installation available for every operating system, mobile device, as well as the ability to log in via a browser.
Example: I want to create the login details for DerwentSec.com.
