I use LastPass and like it. The password is encrypted before it is sent to their server so even LasPass couldn't hack into your passwords.
Another service of their software is that they can generate passwords for each site. This helps cross site hacks. If a bad guy gains access to your password from one site, they will try that password on a multitude of other web sites as well to gain access to your accounts and information. LastPass helps with that. There is a Free / Open Sourced software similar to LastPass that I just heard about a couple weeks ago but I don't remember what it was. If interested, I can search for it. Of course, you could too! <eg> -Kevin On 10/10/2011 10:06 AM, James E Harvey wrote: > Is anyone using an on-line service to manage their password, do you feel > safe using this service? > > It would be a great convenience to be able to browse to a central repository > for this critical information, but obviously the biggest concern is > security. > > > James E Harvey > Corresponding Officer/M.I.S. > Hanover Shoe Farms, Inc. > www.hanoverpa.com > office: 717-637-8931 > cell: 717-887-2565 > fax: 717-637-6766 > > [excessive quoting removed by server] _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/[email protected] ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
