Great article. However, one thing is missed here. There is an alternative way to aggregate passwords in one – simply by using some reliable KDF there. It needs neither vaults, nor clouds, thus, seems to be even more secure, than the mentioned ones. Several free open-source tools are based on this method. Nevertheless, almost nobody knows about it nowadays – even among experts. It’s really strange, because it’s already known for quite a long time. About passwords: sure, it’s hard to memorize them, but for master-password there might be used one way around – gestures (like on the Android lock-screen – remember?). In fact, it makes you able to remember much more with a much less effort. Actually, I tried to combine both methods in one simple tool – the result is awesome.

I’m Megan and I work for AgileBits, the makers of 1Password.

I wanted to thank you for taking the time to educate your readers on the importance of online security, and for including 1Password in your discussion!

In this day and age, it is so important that we all use strong and unique passwords for every site that we visit, and password managers can help make it much more convenient to be secure.

Keep sharing the secure word!
