There are always benefits to using a password manager, as long as you choose a good one with the best technology. The human brain is hardly capable of remembering details about every single account, unless you use the same password over and over again, which itself is a horrible idea. There are dozens to choose from with varying prices and subscription options. If you need some recommendations, here are a few to get you started. These are the best password protection software options:
Kaspersky Password Manager
Kaspersky is one of the biggest names in internet security, and its password management tool is definitely worth using. Not only do you get easy access to every one of your accounts, you also get a secure digital vault in which you can secure bank cards, a digital copy of your passport and photo ID, favorite family photos, and any other personal data that you want to keep protected at all times. There is a free version and a paid version. You never have to worry about Kaspersky or the application developer seeing any of your information, as the company uses “zero-knowledge security”.
Bitdefender Password Manager
If you want more security such as an anti-virus program, parental controls, anti-phishing, etc…, you can get it all in addition to the password manager, which comes included with all of Bitdefender’s security products and services. You can try it all for free by taking advantage of a 30-day full trial of Internet Security, Antivirus Pro, Total Security, or Family Pack 2019. The Password Manager tool is easy to use, and you can create new “wallets’ as needed.
LastPass
This is considered by many to be one of the best password protection software as a standalone solution. There are different levels of privacy and services available, including a Premium subscription for one user or for several. The price obviously varies depending on which subscription you choose. It supports all operating systems on all devices, including iOS, Windows, Android, Mac, Windows Phones, Linux, etc.
1Password Manager
1Password or One Password, however you want to spell it, is an excellent choice. It’s also very affordable and versatile. As far as subscription options go, it’s probably the best password protection software on this list. Choose a Personal Account, Family Account, Team Account, Business Account, and so forth. There is excellent customer support and three levels of encryption. 1Password also stands out as being the first and only password manager to use the next-generation standard from the W3C, which is WebCrypto technology.
