We all know the password struggle: Sticky notes, easily guessed passwords, or complex combinations we instantly forget – the end results are lack of security and frustration. But in today’s digital world, strong password security is paramount. That’s why we’re highlighting the benefits of password managers, specifically Passportal, as a solution to these common password woes.
Traditional password management methods, like sticky notes, notebooks, or even browser-saved passwords, pose significant security risks. Sticky notes are easily visible, notebooks can be lost or stolen, and browser-saved passwords are only as secure as your computer login, making them vulnerable to hackers. Even memorizing passwords, while seemingly secure, makes it difficult to create unique and complex passwords for every site, a crucial security practice.
Password managers offer a secure and convenient alternative. They address three key needs: storing passwords, generating new passwords, and often, autofilling them. Passportal, our recommended solution, goes a step further. It’s a dedicated program designed specifically for password protection, offering a stronger cloud ecosystem and increased security compared to built-in browser options.
In this video, Jake Braddy, our Lead Cyber Security Analyst gives you insights on the importance of password managers and a view into Passportal.
One of Passportal’s key advantages is its layered security. It utilizes two separate passwords: one for your organization and one personal to you. This dual-layer approach significantly enhances protection. Even if a breach were to occur, the added complexity of needing two passwords makes accessing your stored credentials extremely difficult.
Passportal is also incredibly user-friendly. It functions as a browser extension and mobile app, providing easy access to your passwords from any device. The “My Vault” feature allows you to store personal passwords, while the “Company Vault” facilitates secure sharing of passwords among teams or departments. Need to share the social media account password with your marketing team? Passportal makes it easy and secure.
Beyond storage and sharing, Passportal also simplifies password creation. Its built-in password generator creates strong, unique passwords, eliminating the need for you to come up with complex combinations. This addresses the challenge of remembering multiple unique passwords and promotes better overall security hygiene.
