With the many rules that come along with having a strong password such as using a mix of characters and incorporating shorts codes/acronyms, it can be hard to remember the dozens of complicated passwords.
With a password management tool, you can scrap using sticky notes which can be easily accessible if you work in a shared space. All you need to do is remember one password and you’ll have the key to all your other accounts.
To set Password Manager in Google, you need to:
- Type in ‘https://passwords.google.com’ in the search bar
- If you’re not already signed into Google, sign in. If you are already signed in, on the start screen, press ‘Get Started’
- Press the settings icon in the top right corner
- Toggle on the three options: ‘Offer to save passwords’, ‘Auto sign-in‘, and ‘Password alerts’
These settings allow Google to create secure passwords for you and save them automatically so that you don’t need to remember a complex password for each website you make an account for. Additionally, to strengthen your online security, Google will notify you if your passwords are found online – it will then suggest a more secure passwords so that you don’t have to worry about any more leaks.
