I’ve asked this on Twitter before but let’s also try it here in the hope to reach more people outside of the #infosec bubble.

Do you use a password manager?

For the people that answer no, also interested to know why. Is it because you don’t trust it, or rather because you don’t know how to use it, or…?
@j_opdenakker Master password is a much less secure option for me. Prefer to remember my passwords, even if I sometimes forget them.
@bundyo @j_opdenakker I have 312 passwords (according to my passwordmanager)... No way I can remember all of them. How do you manage that?
@ON8SD @j_opdenakker I avoid having that many. 😁
@bundyo @j_opdenakker I would LOVE to do that! 😂
@ON8SD @j_opdenakker I try to use OAuth or similar services whenever available + 2FA.
@bundyo @j_opdenakker 2FA is a good practice 😎. OAuth can be a solution for the password as long as you don't use Twitter for it 😂
@ON8SD @bundyo @j_opdenakker
1. Make a base Password with #diceware
2. Apply a personal #algorithm, to alter your base #Password for each website/app and spice it up with some special characters and numbers
3. Now you can "remember"/reconstruct/create a password for EVERY Site/App, regardless the quantity.
@bundyo @j_opdenakker lots of weak similar passwords < one strong password with 2fa
