Remembering dozens of passwords can be difficult for anyone. These are the best password managers you can use to keep your information safe and secure.

We use passwords for everything. From our bank accounts to free social media sites, our password footprints spread all over our digital landscape. But that means if you’re reusing the same ones over and over again, you’re opening yourself up to hackers potentially finding one in a leak and getting into your most sensitive accounts. That’s where password managers come in. They store all your credentials in one place, taking the burden off of you to remember them all, and even offer stronger password options to help prevent reuse in the future. Yet, it’s a confusing space filled with extra features and security gaps that can make it hard to navigate. We tested out nine of the best password managers available now to help you choose the right one for your needs. 1Password remains our top pick thanks to its zero-knowledge policy, numerous security features and general ease of use, but there are other solid password managers out there to consider as well.

    All of the password managers they listed store your passwords on their servers, and you’re supposed to hope that their encryption is good enough that the hackers won’t decrypt your password the next time they get hacked (like LastPass, for example).

    KeePassXC doesn’t store passwords in any “cloud”, it’s on your computer/phone only and nowhere else. It’s also FOSS

      Bitwarden can be also self-hosted and it’s FOSS. It’s convinient to have access to all your passwords on all your devices. This can probably also be done with keepass, but you need another app to sync the database.
