Some password managers also offer additional features , such as the ability to store other sensitive data (credit cards, documents, notes, files) or to share our credentials with other trusted people.

A password manager is a program that offers us numerous advantages, both in terms of security and convenience.

In fact, with a password manager we can have long, complex and different passwords for each site and service, reducing the risk of suffering cyber attacks, such as phishing, brute force or identity theft.

Furthermore, our credentials are encrypted with strong algorithms, and only we can access them with our master password, which is the only one we have to remember by heart.

A password manager also saves us from having to remember or write down dozens or hundreds of high school senior mailing list passwords, and saves us time by automatically filling in login fields on websites and online services.

It makes it easier for us to manage our credentials , allowing us to organize, modify and delete them quickly and easily.

Finally, a password manager allows us to access our credentials from any device we use, synchronizing them between computers, smartphones, tablets and other devices.

Some password managers also offer us the possibility of accessing our vault from a web browser, via an online portal.

This way we can always have our credentials at hand , wherever we are.
