But one tool that our clients sometimes forget is the password manager\u2014an equally useful tool that can help your business keep passwords safe and secure.<\/p>\n<h2>Explaining a Password Manager<\/h2>\n<p>A password manager is much more than a pop-up that helps you remember passwords for your accounts.<\/p>\n<p>As nice as it would be for your web browser to have a bonafide password manager built into it, it\u2019s just not the case. In truth, many of the password-management features built into your browser are often mistaken as full-fledged password managers. A true password manager is an app that has the sole purpose of storing and securing passwords in an encrypted vault for use when the time comes.<\/p>\n<p>Businesses should implement an enterprise-level password manager that allows admins to deploy and control it.<\/p>\n<h3>A True Password Manager is More Secure<\/h3>\n<p>The best password managers worth your time will have encrypted vaults to secure credentials.<\/p>\n<p>This means that no one can crack your vault without some serious legwork on their part. If they were to break in, they\u2019d find nothing but nonsense strings of characters that are useless without decryption. It\u2019d just be a big waste of their time.<\/p>\n<p>This type of protection is a serious distinction from the regular plain text lists that most browsers will save their passwords as.<\/p>\n<h3>A True Password Manager Generates Complex Passwords<\/h3>\n<p>If you want to maximize password security, you need complex passwords.<\/p>\n<p>These passwords consist of complex, long, and random strings of characters. They might include numbers, special symbols, and your typical upper and lower-case letters. Basically, you don\u2019t want to use any word in a dictionary that could easily be guessed or generated, as a computer will be doing the guessing, not a human.<\/p>\n<p>Really, there\u2019s no need to make dozens of passwords that you need to memorize, as with a password manager, you only need to remember your master password.<\/p>\n<h3>A True Password Manager Is Accessible on Multiple Devices<\/h3>\n<p>A good password manager will be a piece of software that\u2019s not tied to your device\u2014not necessarily, anyway.<\/p>\n<p>Most password managers can be used across your devices, allowing you to remain secure whether you\u2019re on a laptop, desktop, or smart device. Passwords can be synced up and called as needed. Furthermore, a good password manager will offer a secure browser extension that helps you use credentials wherever and whenever you are working.<\/p>\n<p>When you compare the security to your browser\u2019s built-in password storage, there\u2019s no reason to opt for the latter.<\/p>\n<h2>Use a Trustworthy Password Manager to Improve Your Business Security<\/h2>\n<p>Does your business need to improve account security?<\/p>\n<p>Coleman Technologies can equip your organization with the tools it needs to be safe from all kinds of threats.
