If you’re like most people, you regularly repeat passwords when you’re having to sign up for a simple account with a website. There are too many accounts and too many passwords to remember these days, and repeating easy-to-remember passwords cuts down on used brainpower.
The problem is that repeating simple passwords leaves you vulnerable to hackers — if they obtain a password for one site you use, they simply have to repeat it to gain access to others. Password managers want to help you remember all your passwords while also beefing up the security for all your accounts. It’s a simple tool, but an effective one for anyone who regularly uses the internet.
