A password manager is generally recommended for anyone who works online and needs to know more than just a handful of passwords. It makes life and work easier and also saves time. A password manager therefore has several advantages that extend to different areas:
1. work faster
A password manager directly enters the saved password when prompted. Therefore using a password manager saves a lot of time. If you use it professionally, you can be particularly productive. This also applies to the time saved, which is due to the fact that you don't have to search for notes with forgotten passwords. Also, the otherwise necessary recovery of a password is no longer necessary, since the Password Manager is designed to help out in such situations and prevent the password from being forgotten forever.
2. better safekeeping of passwords
Password managers are also designed to avoid the insecure storage of access data on notepads and similar media. A Password Manager stores the password in the Databasewhich is encrypted and protected from external access, at least in the case of professional and carefully working providers. In addition, backup copies are always made of such databases, so that the passwords stored by the user are better protected against loss than is the case with a piece of paper.
3. no more confusion of passwords
If you have to know many passwords, it is easy to confuse them. This can be avoided with a password manager. It not only stores the passwords, but also remembers the web address where the passwords must be entered. So there is no more danger of confusion. This is also an advantage because some providers block access after a certain number of incorrect password entries. If you only have three attempts, but many different passwords to choose from, you can easily get into trouble. Especially if the block is not lifted by a simple time lapse, but the account has to be unlocked separately.
4. more courage for variations
Password managers also help to avoid the constant repetition of passwords. Those who have trouble remembering their passwords on their own and without support tend to use the same password for different websites. Such a procedure poses a security risk, since a security gap on one of the websites leads to the fact that the access data for the other Pages are known. This is particularly bad if the password is used to access sensitive Data (e.g. bank data or other financially important things). A password manager allows to use a new password for each page.
5. more courage for longer passwords
The longer and more varied a password is, the more secure it is. However, it is also more difficult to remember such a password - especially if it makes no inner sense and consists only of a string of characters and numbers. A password manager stores every password - even those that are particularly long and therefore particularly secure. It encourages you to consciously choose such a password and thus to protect your own data better.
6. more courage for a regular change
It is sensible and recommended to change passwords regularly to maintain their security. Password managers can be adjusted after a change and store the new password just as reliably as the old one. They are especially recommended for such situations. After all, a password change is quickly forgotten if it is based on a spontaneous idea. This cannot happen with a Password Manager. In this point, too, it ensures security when managing your own login data.
