Why LastPass is the Best Option for Password Management

Why LastPass is the Best Option for Password Management

A vital, often overlooked, layer of the “cybersecurity onion” is strong password protection. Think of passwords like saved numbers in your phone — as each one is unique to their respective person, as should each password be to their separate app, website, etc. The strongest passwords contain a combination of unmemorable and unreplicable letters, numbers, and special characters.

So, what happens when those passwords become so many and so complicated that even you have a hard time keeping track of what’s what?
