Why I use a PW management app called Last Pass.

Also why I'm so glad to be retired from 30/60/90 day password changes with security dongles for server access.

That would be bad. On the bright side, the information is stored in encrypted form on the LP servers and only decrypted on the user's computer so while not fool proof, nothing is, it's pretty safe. For some financial accounts I also use a security dongle that spits out a number that has to match one generated on the other end. Google authenticator is an alternative app that does the same thing, but not all server support this higher level of security. Our bank will send a pin number via text, in addition to a login ID & PW, but not as secure, your cellphone can be spoofed to capture the pins, but better than nothing.

When I asked why she said she was told it had to be 8 characters.
