Password Manager: A Complete Guide

05. 09. 2025 1 min read intermediate

If you’re not using a password manager, your passwords are probably weak or reused.

Why Use a Password Manager

  • Unique password for every service
  • Strong passwords (30+ characters, random)
  • Auto-fill (no phishing attacks)
  • Password sharing in teams
  • Dark web monitoring (some)

Top Choices

  • Open source
  • Free tier sufficient for personal use
  • Self-hosting possible (Vaultwarden)
  • $10/year for premium

1Password

  • Best UX
  • Great macOS/iOS integration
  • $36/year
  • Not self-hostable

KeePass

  • Offline, local database
  • Free, open source
  • Sync via Syncthing/Dropbox
  • Less user-friendly

Migration

  1. Install password manager
  2. Import passwords from browser
  3. Gradually change passwords to strong ones
  4. Enable 2FA where possible
  5. Delete passwords from browser

Rule

One master password (strong, memorable) + password manager for everything else. Today, not tomorrow.
