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 I don't understand how it doesn't make passwords significantly less secure?

You now have one point of weakness, the password manager, which would reveal ALL your other passwords, no?

@j_opdenakker @Minihood it allows me to have passwords which are completely random and have a length of 25+ which propably no one could have ever just remembered. A alternative would be to have them written down somewhere which is fair I guess, but since I don’t use cookies that would make me type them out everytime instead of c&p. If you add 2FA to all the accounts in your password manager it is not one point of weakness.
