I&#8217;ve used a password manager for years and wouldn&#8217;t be able to juggle all my online accounts without it.<\/p>\n<p>However, since your password manager is home to the sensitive login details for all your accounts, you need to protect the password manager itself from any potential compromise. Breaches against such services as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/lastpass-hacked\/\" rel=\"follow\">LastPass<\/a> and Norton LifeLock show that password management vendors are certainly not immune from cyberattack. Though such breaches may not have directly exposed login passwords, they do leave users of these services more vulnerable.<\/p>\n<p>To protect yourself and your password information, there are steps you should take on your own to safeguard your account.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Devise a strong master password to defend your account from unwanted access.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>Activate biometric authentication for the password manager on your PC and mobile device.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<li>Enable two-factor authentication to prevent someone from signing into your password manager account should it ever be compromised.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><strong>Also:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/leaving-lastpass-heres-how-to-get-your-passwords-out\/\" rel=\"follow\"><strong>Leaving LastPass?

That&#8217;s why I recommend using a passphrase instead of a password. Consisting of different words or phrases, the right type of passphrase can be more secure than a complex password yet easier to remember.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Also:<\/strong>&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.zdnet.com\/article\/youre-definitely-not-making-the-most-of-your-password-manager\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><strong>You&#8217;re definitely not making the most of your password manager<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n<p>To devise a solid passphrase, use a series of words or phrases with some meaning or significance to you so that you&#8217;ll easily recall it. I also like to include a mix of uppercase and lowercase characters as well as numbers and symbols. Just make sure you&#8217;re able to remember your master passphrase.

Your password manager&#8217;s account page may also list all the devices that have been enrolled so you can check for any suspicious ones and remove any you no longer use.<\/p>\n<p>Beyond the three security options I discussed, different password managers may offer additional ones.
