Since recently joining this site and getting a seedbox, and a bitcoin account, and more email addresses, etc, I've got loads of different urls, passwords, logins, etc.

Im sure I read somewhere on this site to use password generators/managers etc ...


How do you guys manage your urls/logins/passwords?

Hi @fair
you can use password managers, they encrypt your data with 256 bit encryption which is safe
If u want cloud base password manager with addon for firefox chrome & app for ios android check out Lastpass. use their free service.
if u want offline database with app support check out keepass which is free.
all you have to do is google how to export browser's user pass into .csv file & import .csv file into database
hope it helps
regards

It does help, yeshir - But is there a recommended "de-facto" method favoured by forum members? Cloudbased vs offline?

@fair its up to you to choose between lastpass or keepass I use both of them I recommend to google their reviews for yourself & see the pros & cons of each service
if u want pass manager as browser addon then the choice is lastpass
lastpass is more convenient as well

OK, thanks pal, apprec.

i use text file for storing and this for generating:
< /dev/urandom tr -dc _A-Z-a-z-0-9 | head -c${1:-32};echo;

I user LastPass as well as Chrome's password manager. I haven't decided which to use, as I haven't really checked out LastPass for Android yet.. Last I checked, it wasn't free (but that was also like 3 years ago or so....)

I'm using Bitwarden "awesome open source app" + Chrome password manager too.

As @TheAquarius metions, LastPass - that would be my recommendation. I've used it since Steve Gibson vouched for it and explained it in details in his security podcast Security Now! episode #256. That - you can find and listen to here: https://www.grc.com/sn/past/2010.htm - "Steve delivers his long awaited in-depth review and evaluation of LastPass. "
