The door of our house is the barrier so that the friends of the alien can freely access and take what they want. On the internet, there are no doors, but there are barriers in the form of passwords, these being the most precious asset, since it is the gateway to a large amount of data, both personal and economic when it comes to protecting our accounts. While is true that use the same password on all online platforms is not the best idea, it is a more than usual practice for millions of people around the world.
Also, if we follow the recommendations of most platforms, we must enter numbers, symbols, upper and lower case letters so that the password is as strong as possible. We can follow this advice as long as we rely on an application that helps us remember them whenever we need them, unless we have a photographic memory. Although browsers include a password manager, not always the best optionespecially when we usually change browsers.

1Password is an app that was initially released for the Apple ecosystem, but has expanded to Windows and Android in recent years. In addition, it is also available as an extension so we can manage all our passwords as well as automatically and quickly synchronize them with our mobile devices.
1Password not only allows us to save our passwords, but also allows us to store license numbers, our credit card numbers and bank accounts. In order to take full advantage of this application and, therefore, the extension, we need to pay a monthly subscription.

Another interesting application that we have at our disposal to manage our passwords securely from Chrome is found in Free Password Manager, an application that is also available for both iOS and Android, which will allow us to always carry passwords with you that we can need at any time and place. If and we forget the mobile, there is no problem, since we can also access via the web, as long as we remember the master password that gives access to all our passwords.
In addition to Chrome, it is also available for Windows, Linux, macOS, iPadOS, iOS, and Android.

Unlike the two options that we have shown above, the use of KeePassHelper Password is completely free and does not require any type of subscription, although we do have to install the corresponding application, an application that is responsible for managing all the passwords and putting them at our disposal. disposition through the corresponding extension. This is an open source application, so that anyone with the appropriate knowledge can access its content and ensure the treatment of their data.
