How to create a login for registration. Universal and professional logins. Email Registration

Today I want to touch on a very important topic that concerns any user who works on a computer and has access to the Internet.

And this topic concerns passwords that we are required to enter in almost all services, from email and social networks to a personal account on the government services website.

And, although the password policy on many sites may differ slightly (which characters can be entered when entering a password and which cannot), all services without exception insist that we use complex passwords.

Very often we simply ignore this warning. Why? In my opinion, for two reasons.

The first reason is simply laziness.

Well, the second reason, rather, partially follows from the first. It's much easier for us to remember simple password "123456 " or "qwerty", since it is simple and convenient for us to press 6 keys in succession rather than remember difficult type password "!QjhRt^&018@asW", consisting of 15 characters ( , numbers and special characters). Moreover special characters for this password ( !^& And @ ) you still need to find it on the keyboard, which is not always possible the first, second, and sometimes tenth time (your humble servant is no exception to this rule).

So why do you need to enter complex passwords? How to make a complex password so that it is easy to remember?
I want to talk to you about this and much more in this lesson.

First, about logins

The Internet is remarkable in that we ourselves can come up with a “name” under which, firstly, we will be recognized on the Internet, and secondly, we will be entered into forms in which we are asked to enter our username and password.

This could be your real name, or it could be something original that you came up with.

There are some problems with real names on the Internet today. Real names are practically all taken. What does "busy" mean?

One good example is creating an email account on any email service.

For example, I want to create a mailbox on the yandex.ru mail service. And I want my email address to be [email protected].

Beautiful, understandable, recognizable and easy to remember.

I'm trying to do this. I enter it into the field "Create a username" your name in Latin - Oleg.

The service tells me that "Sorry, login is busy". And it offers me 10 options for free logins.

But all of them do not suit me for one simple reason - they are too long. Moreover, it asks you to enter your mobile phone number as a unique login. It turns out that everyone who receives my letters will know my mobile phone number. Do you want that? For example, I don't want to.

OK then. I’ll overcome my laziness and bias towards long logins and add my last name with a dot. Judging by the options offered by the service, you can use the dot in the login. I enter Oleg.Ivashinenko.

The result is similar to the previous one. It turns out that there is already an account with the same first and last name on the Yandex mail service.

This means I need to come up with my own unique name, which, most importantly, I liked myself.

At one time, I racked my brain for a long time on how to come up with a name for myself so that I would definitely not forget it and so that it would be more or less sonorous.

In the end, I took the first two letters of my first and last name and got Nick(nickname - from the English nickname, which means “another name”, “pseudonym”) oliv.

But over time, this nickname was also taken up on the services where I registered. Then I added two more letters from my middle name and it turned out to be a nickname olivur.

For the last 10 years I have used this nickname during registrations without any problems. So if I have a postal email address in the form [email protected], that will also be good.

I enter into the form my original, as I believe, login “olivur”.

Also busy. I don't want to give up. I add the magic seven to the name.

Everything worked out. Basically, the email address [email protected] looks good too. You can continue registration.

True, I won’t do this, since I already have 2 mailboxes on Yandex. Enough for now. Let's move on to passwords.

I have nothing to hide. I am an honest person.

Very often on various forums, especially on forums on computer and Internet safety, I often come across comments like “I have nothing to hide. I am an honest person."

And, although I usually don’t comment on such statements, one time I still couldn’t stand it and wrote something like this: “Well, since you have nothing to hide and you are an honest person, then write your login And password from this forum where we communicate."

Do you think there was a response to my comment? Right. Did not have. This means there is something to hide. And if there is something to hide, then in the context of this phrase the forum member is no longer an honest person.

Okay, this is all sophistry.

In fact, all information relating to each user should still remain confidential. Starting from the passport number and TIN to the email address, as well as logins and passwords for various resources and services on the Internet.

At the initial stage of mastering a computer, it is really difficult to understand why confidentiality is needed. But with time, understanding will come.

Let me give you a few of my own examples.

For the second year now I have not gone to the post office or Sberbank to pay utility bills.

I make all payments from home using my home computer. These are the so-called online services of various banks.

Russian Standard Bank calls its service “Bank in your pocket”, VTB24 calls it “Telebank”, etc. And, although the names may be different, the essence is the same - everything is very convenient and transparent.

To conduct financial transactions, I have three plastic cards - salary, debit and credit.

I use the debit card as a “passbook” and very rarely pay in the store. Very comfortably. There are no fees for maintaining cards or accounts. Well, interest also accrues on the accumulated funds.

I pay all payments using my salary card. Well, if suddenly the time comes to pay the receipt, and there is nothing on the salary card, then I pay with a credit card. Well, from my next paycheck I’ll transfer the required amount to my credit card so that no interest is charged.

So why am I telling all this?

I do all this (payment of utility bills using ready-made templates, transfer of money from account to account) in the personal accounts of the relevant banks. Well, access to these personal accounts carried out according to logins and passwords.

Since this is my personal finance, I am very keen that no one except me knows my credentials in these banks. And, although when performing financial transactions banks require confirmation codes, which they send me via SMS to my mobile phone, my passwords are quite complex.

And, although, just in case, they are written down in my , I remember these passwords. But more on that later.

Another illustrative example.

Just recently I registered on the government services website. It turned out to be quite an interesting and necessary portal for me, at least.

I was surprised to discover that I had a tax debt. But the surprise quickly passed, as I remembered that I paid the land tax too late. And I got a penalty. My debt to the state a month ago was already 12 rubles. 75 kop.

At the same time, I looked to see if I had any traffic fines. It turned out that there is one. Although I have not yet received any paper by mail.

Although I’m not going abroad yet, I still paid off these debts so that my soul would be at peace.

The resource turned out to be interesting. You can easily get a foreign passport, register your car, enroll your child in kindergarten, etc. and so on.

So, as login this resource uses the number SNILS A. This login is truly unique and only I know it.

SNILS is the Insurance Number of the Individual Personal Account of the insurance certificate of the state pension insurance. Well, so that no one had access to my personal information, I had to come up with a really complex but memorable password.

How passwords are cracked

I'm not a hacker or a computer security expert. But I am familiar with the basic principles of information security. And you should know them. This will help save a lot of nerve cells in the future.

I will not deny that a hacker (the largest specialist in the field of computer system security), if he wants to hack your computer, will do it. Provided, of course, that you yourself are not an expert in this field.

One thing consoles me. To be honest, neither you nor I are needed by hackers at all. Take my word for it. They have global interests.

But as for us mere mortals, quite common programs on the Internet work with us and are available to any user.

I have already described how such programs get onto our computers in the lesson “”. Therefore, I will not repeat myself.

Now I want to tell you about one of the types of such programs that select passwords on various information resources.

This type of program is called "Brutforce". This name comes from a combination of two English words "brute force" , which mean "Total overkill" or "Brute force method".

Such password guessing programs use special "dictionaries". What are "dictionaries"?

A “dictionary” is a regular text file (or several files), each line of which contains a “word”. For example:

password

So here it is. Such programs take each “word” from such a “dictionary” in turn and substitute it in the password field until this “word” matches the “word” you created that you use as a password.

Depending on the complexity of your password, such a program may take from a few seconds to hundreds of years. Or maybe he won’t be able to pick it up at all.

So if you have a password "qwerty" or, let's say "z,kjrj"(word "apple", typed in English), then this type of program will take seconds to guess the password.

So what to do? How do you know how simple or complex your password is?

In fact, it's not all doom and gloom.

Coming up with a complex password

Computer security specialists are also not sitting idle. They conduct ongoing analysis of various malware. In particular, programs like “Brute force”.

And at the moment there are already a lot of resources on the Internet where you can check the uniqueness of your password.

Let's use one of these resources as an example and see how to create a “complex” but easy-to-remember password.

Let’s choose http://password.ru/ as such a resource (More services for checking password strength: 2ip.ru, howsecureismypassword.net)

Another resource, the link to which was sent to me by reader Mary: https://ru.vpnmentor.com

I will tell you about one of the algorithms. But you can show your imagination and come up with your own algorithm.

Let, for example, your name is Ivanov Ivan Ivanovich. We “come up” with a password based on our last name, since we definitely remember this word from childhood - ivanov

Judging by the site's response, cracking such a password will take less than a second. Add an exclamation point (or any other special character) before the last name - !ivanov

Already better. To crack such a password, the program will need 12 minutes 57 seconds.

Add an exclamation point after the last name - !ivanov!

The result is also not a very complex password, which can be cracked in 12 hours and 31 minutes.

Add the numbers 12345 to the end - !ivanov!12345

As you can see from the message, such a password can be cracked in 7 and a half million years.

Although the password turned out to be complex, it is quite easy to remember. These are roughly the same algorithms for creating passwords that I use myself.

There is another option for creating complex passwords that are easy to remember.

For example, this morning before work, the cartoon “The Scarlet Flower” was shown on TV. Why not a password? Easy to remember.

But, of course, it is not advisable to leave such a password. Let's change it. Let's type the name of the cartoon in English case with a small letter without a space: fktymrbqwdtnjxtr and check it on the website.

It would take about half a million years to crack such a password.

As you can see, it is not at all difficult to come up with a complex, easy-to-remember password.

That's all for today. Good luck and creative success to everyone. 🙂

With respect to all my readers and subscribers

Whenever you register on the Internet, you must come up with a login (also called login, username, nickname) and a password (password) for subsequent authentication in the system and login to your personal account. It is extremely important to create combinations that meet two important requirements:

Login - easy to remember;
Password is a very difficult combination of characters, numbers and letters for an outsider.

The login can be used everywhere the same, as a kind of brand, and the passwords certainly had to be completely different in order to make hacking it as long and difficult as possible. There are no “unhackable” options, since competent specialists can do almost everything in computers, the Internet and programming. Hacking the password for an ordinary social network account is a trivial matter for them. Therefore, it is important to make a complex version of the code so that a hacker does not have the patience to break into your profile and do something nasty there.

Many people think that creating a good personal password and nickname (login) is a completely simple matter, however, such a misconception often leads to very sad consequences in the form of the loss of their favorite account. In this case, it is possible to lose everything - friends, your community, important records, personal photos, contact information, correspondence, and much more. etc. To prevent this from happening to you, we will make your identification data as reliable and beautiful as possible, observing special rules.

Why come up with a beautiful login?

Login (nickname, also known as login) is a reflection of you as a person, presented in the form of an alphanumeric combination (maybe some other characters). Of course, it’s not difficult to come up with an arbitrary combination of symbols and make a super complex abra-kadabra.

People care about you, and not some name on the site. This is true, but...

If the combination is complex, then for sure at some right moment you will forget your nickname, and the sheet where it was written down for safety reasons will simply not be found. Such records have the ability to get lost at times of extreme need. In any case, it will take a long time to enter characters correctly, switch between upper and lowercase writing, check for errors, etc. These are all additional difficulties.
Friends, relatives and simple strangers will be more willing to contact you when the login is well-remembered and immediately points to a specific person. If your login immediately comes to mind, it’s easy to type it into the address bar and contact you or write a message (email).
For online earnings, a solid nickname is extremely important, because often customers or partners only see this nickname. Based on it, they form their own initial impression of you. It is difficult to achieve success and earn substantial sums as a specialist if the login line says, for example, “Svetik-semitsvetik22” or “Terminator_1994”. In serious matters, sometimes it is login that plays a decisive role.
You need to work scrupulously on your brand, that is, on your nickname, from the moment you register on any web project. All steps should be thought through in advance, since under such a virtual name you will go down in history.
Some unusual areas of activity select performers solely by login. This nickname clearly demonstrates the creativity, originality and mental abilities of a person. This approach is especially relevant for services where you can earn money online (copywriting, naming, rewriting, freelancing, etc.).

All the above factors should be taken into account!

An example of creating a good password

You will create an amazing password if you follow these instructions:

take any word you know well and remember well. Let it be Siemens2017; - go through all the points (instructions from specialists) of the manual from the previous paragraph. It will look like this: Siemens2017 -> SieMenS2017 -> 5ieMenS2O17 -> 5ie,Men.S2O17. The last dot does not apply to the password;
It turned out to be an original combination. Using this method, you can easily and quickly create a code that is very difficult for hackers, but quite easy for you to remember.

Bad password options

children's names, animal names, your famous nickname;
any variations of the first and last name. Even attaching numbers does not complicate such a password;
special dates and events from your life, known to a large number of people or noted on public resources (social networks, forums, open competitions, photographs, etc.);
words in reverse alphabetic keyboard layout. You write, for example, the familiar word “Yaroslavl”, but with the English layout it will turn out to be “Zhjckfdkm”. Special programs can easily solve such passwords;
any complex words from dictionaries, for example, “synchrophasotron”. Hackers have software that recognizes such words.

Remember! Any information that is easy to obtain is definitely an unacceptable password solution!

How and where to store passwords

Coming up with complex code and an original login is half the battle. Now it is important not to forget or lose this data. It is very difficult to remember combinations of characters, numbers and letters, especially when there are more than two or three such codes and logins. For this reason, it is extremely important to create a special place in which this vital information will be stored. If anything, you will always open the required page in your notebook (notebook) and enter the required data correctly.

Not long ago, security experts noted that creating complex passwords facilitates hacking. Since people are not able to remember complex passwords, they began to write them down directly on computers and phones, from where hackers steal the treasured password.

The basic rules for storing passwords and nicknames are as follows:

Make a note on paper (notebook, diary, notebook, regular sheet, etc.) and keep it close to you. It is not advisable to indicate what your login and password are for, but if you need to do this, then somehow encrypt the purpose of the data;
You can also save it on your PC, but first mask it. Write information in a text editor, take a screenshot and save it in a separate place (HDD or flash drive). In principle, it is acceptable to leave the data in text format, but you should change its format - change DOC, DOCX or TXT to JPG. The computer system will now display the file as an image. These are the documents that hackers look at last, if they decide to study them at all. The nuance here is important. Now, in order to see the masked information again, you need to change the format back from JPG to TXT, DOCX or DOC - depending on what you used;
use special virtual password storages from well-known anti-virus software manufacturers (Kaspersky, Dr.WEB, AVAST). In them, the data is securely encrypted and access to it is possible only by entering a special cipher. Ultimately, you only need to remember one password well. This is a good, reliable and convenient way;

Warning! On many sites, in order to restore access to a personal account if your password is lost, it is suggested that during registration you additionally use the answer to a strictly secret (security) question. This is also a good thing, but you need to take it seriously. Do not use questions suggested by the system. Always come up with your own question and indicate the answer to it. It is better to use very personal information for this!

Hello, dear readers of the blog site. It seems like a simple question, but it still often arises for novice Internet users when they need a login and password.

It would be better if I immediately warn you and try to explain the importance of your usernames and passwords, because on the Internet they break everything, and not just where something is located.

What is “my login” and how does it differ from a username?

So, login is your individual identifier (must be unique for the service where you register). Now many services allow you to use names or nicknames written in Russian letters as your logins, but previously everyone was required to use exclusively Latin characters and numbers when writing them.

This is apparently due to the fact that the data received during user registration (login and password) is stored in the database. Therefore, when entering my login, I use the same rule that is acceptable to use in - ,,,[_],[-]. This spelling is suitable when registering for any service.

You still have to figure it out what is login, and what is a username. Very often one is different from the other. This confusion is growing from the same above-mentioned rule of using only Latin characters when registering, while on the forum, website, blog and social network where you register, it would be appropriate to use usernames (real or nicknames) written in Russian language.

That’s why you often have to fill out two fields in the registration form: login (only in Latin) and name (possibly in Russian). True, there is now a general trend on the Internet towards simplification, and there are fewer and fewer sites where you are confused by incomprehensible fields with two similar concepts.

Now often use as their login just your mailbox address or the mobile phone number specified during registration. Moreover, you can use any of these identifiers (login, phone or E-mail). It is clear that I am not talking about forums, but about sites like or.

It’s also worth coming up with your login wisely, because your personal data (full name) indicated in it can help attackers apply social engineering methods to you if you inadvertently become an object of interest for such individuals (this is how wallets in electronic payment systems, postal and social accounts, as well as much more).

In our digital age, we need to learn to be vigilant and overcome our innate gullibility. Don't think that no one needs you. They are needed, but not you specifically, but together with thousands more careless users like you. Accounts are stolen online, and then sold in bulk to spammers and other bad people.

In addition, please note that on most services, the the login cannot be changed later, except perhaps only by registering a new account. Therefore, try to think through in advance all the awkward moments that may arise in this regard (for example, having registered in Miralinks under the nickname of one well-known character in the world of SEO, I received questions from the administration several times about the ownership of certain sites added to this system).

A complex password is what will allow you to sleep peacefully

Well, now let’s talk about the second part of personal data, which you will need so much when logging in to any service on the Internet. I'm talking about password. What it is? Ideally, this is a very difficult to select and difficult to predict set of characters, which are not always letters or numbers.

The more complex my password is, the more difficult it will be for attackers to hack my mailbox, account on a forum, website or social network by simply searching through dictionaries. An example of bad options would be your name typed in the Latin layout, qwerty options, 123456 and thousands of others, lists of which are available to any hacker lying around.

It is clear that you are insured in case you forget the password you came up with or lose the piece of paper on which you wrote it down. But anything that helps you recover it will help the attacker figure it out. The good old saying still applies: if you put it further away, you will take it closer.

Personally, I realized the need using a secure manager to store my passwords and logins only after the theft of funds from my WebMoney wallet and after almost all of my sites were infected with viruses. In both cases, there was a banal theft of passwords (in the first case, it seems that my mailbox with a password equal to qwertyqwerty was hacked using a brute force method, and in the second case, my passwords for accessing sites via FTP, stored in clear text in filezil, were taken out).

Carelessness is always punishable, especially on the Internet, where the situation is similar to the dashing nineties in Russia. When choosing a password manager, I was guided by reviews on the Internet, and also by the fact that it was free and open source(any understanding programmer will be able to identify developer loopholes if they exist).

The latter is important, because trusting all your data to one single program is quite fraught. But if there are no “bookmarks” in the code, then opening the database without entering the master password or specifying a key file will be almost impossible, because cracking a complex database encryption key with passwords by brute force can take years even on a supercomputer.

The program is again free and open source - time-tested reliability. In general, be vigilant and do not trust even yourself in matters of security.

Good luck to you! See you soon on the pages of the blog site

Creating a login

This is the first of two required components. The login, or account name, is used to identify you as a user. You can consider this your unique naming on a specific resource.

Which two aspects are worth discussing separately? This is safety and human forgetfulness.

How to secure your account

How do attackers gain access to user accounts? They somehow find out the login and try to guess or crack the password. It wouldn't be wise to make it easy for them. But here the question immediately arises that the naming of accounts on many sites is in the public domain. A striking example is forums. Here you can always find a list of registered people, precisely because their accounts are available for viewing.

Therefore, it is difficult to advise the correct approach to creating a login. In any case, since we won’t be able to protect ourselves very much if we enter a complex and long name, then it’s better to indicate one that you definitely won’t forget. We will talk about this in the next paragraph.

note . Many sites have an extended account registration procedure. In this case, you will need to enter both the account name, which will be used in conjunction with the password, to log into the site. So is your personal name on this site, which will be visible to users. This approach hides your real login, making it more difficult to hack your account.

Forgetfulness

A huge number of people constantly ask for help - very often they forget their credentials to log in to some resource. All that can be advised to them is to use the standard procedure for restoring access, or try to remember their data.

What follows from this? If you're not a genius at memorizing, you can use the same naming for your account on all sites. Since it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to protect yourself from hacking with a complex login, at least you won’t forget it.

Set a complex password

This is where you need to put some effort into setting a password for your account.

First, your password must be long enough and have a combination of letters, numbers and special characters. Something like this:

AJEI#!*&^#JKL172

But you must admit, firstly, it’s difficult to remember, and secondly, it’s quite difficult to type. Therefore, 90% of users forget about security, and wherever they create an account, they enter the password “1234”.

I’m unlikely to be able to convince you that you need to come up with a new, complex password every time. And so as not to forget, write it down either on a piece of paper or in a text file on your PC. Therefore, at least follow the recommendation - come up with a complex password once, write it down and save it. And use to create an account. This way, at least you won't forget your password, and hacking your account will be more difficult.

I urge you to constantly assess the possible risk. If you register on a site to download an e-book, and after that you will probably never visit it again, then you can use any, as simple as possible, login and password. But if we are talking about a service where you will order goods, leave your personal data, and make payments using a plastic card, take the most responsible approach to account security. Specify a complex password and write it down.

The problem with security questions

The picture wouldn't be complete if we didn't look at the security issues associated with creating security questions.

Let's imagine the following situation. You have set your unique login and entered a very complex password. But during the registration process they require you to indicate a secret question and the answer to it. Without thinking twice, choose the option - " Mother's Maiden Name" and the answer is "Ivanova".

Namely, this data will be used in the procedure for restoring access to the account. If you forget your username and password, you will be prompted to provide a security question and answer. If these details are entered, you will gain access to your account. Or the attacker will get it, because it won’t be difficult to find an answer to such a question.

It is negligence in providing this data that will lead to account hacking. Therefore, if the service where you are trying to create a login and password requires you to specify a security question, write it manually and ask an answer that will be difficult to guess.

Conclusion

Always remember that the security of your personal data always rests on your shoulders. On the Internet, to ensure their safety, it is necessary to create complex passwords during registration.

Why look for information on other sites if everything is collected here?

Hello, dear readers of the blog site! For experienced users, of course, it is not difficult to answer the question in the title regarding the login and password for an account that is created on one or another online service.

However, novice users sometimes encounter difficulties when they need to figure out for themselves these components of authorization during registration, and even more so when they need to decide how and where to store this very important personal data so that it is convenient, and most importantly, so that they do not become property of attackers.

Therefore, it is extremely important to immediately understand some rules for yourself, which I will discuss below, so that later you will not be excruciatingly painful for your unreasonable frivolity. Also, during the story, we will look at how to create logins and passwords in the correct form and use automation methods in the form of reliable software to store them and log into accounts.

What is a login and how to create one

This term comes from the English phrase “log in”, which means “log in”, “log in”. It is used on any site where registration is required (large online portals like Yandex and Google, social networks, various services, video hosting, etc.). Now let's try to understand how to create your own login, which would fit the required parameters.

You should distinguish between login and username. The login is intended for subsequent authorization and must be written in Latin letters regardless of which service (Russian or English) you register on, otherwise the system simply will not accept it.

The user name is used on some resources within the system primarily for communication and it is quite acceptable to write it in Russian on Russian-language services, which is quite logical. To avoid confusion in this matter, recently, authoritative sites often use email addresses or mobile phone numbers as logins.

This can be said, for example, in relation to the largest social networks - Linkedin. In fact, the question is not idle, especially if you are going to use the World Wide Web for serious purposes, including or even running an online business. But even if this is not the case, being online also involves communicating with people.

The username you entered when registering on large sites or portals, which is very often part of your email address, plays a very significant role, so choose it with the utmost seriousness.

It should also be noted that any system needs to identify each user. Therefore, the selected login will be unique and belong only to you. Every year it becomes more and more difficult to find not only a beautiful and “speaking” name, but also an exclusive one, since the number of users on the Internet is growing by leaps and bounds, so you will have to work hard here too.

You can experiment with finding a suitable username, and the system will reject existing names, while simultaneously offering several free options, including combinations of real first and last names (or parts thereof):

If the proposed variations do not suit you, you can initiate the search again by entering a different user name in the field. Personally, I like derivatives with parts of first and last names, but in combination with numbers they do not look so attractive, again for my taste. So in this case I would try to find a different name.

Somehow like this. Keep in mind that in the vast majority of cases, the selected login cannot be changed later. The only option is to register a new account, but this way out of the situation is not always acceptable, especially if your account has collected a very decent amount of necessary data.

Choose a complex password - this is the way to ensure maximum security

Now let's turn our attention to another part of the data for authorization and logging into your account. Speech about the password or password(from English password). What is it? Of course, for experienced users such a question sounds funny, but there are always those who are just starting their “life on the Internet,” isn’t it?

But even experienced users sometimes make childish mistakes by not following basic security rules when creating and storing passwords, which I would like to remind you of. I think this will not be superfluous, since this topic is extremely important.

So, perfect "my" password is a complex combination of numbers, letters and other symbols that makes it extremely difficult for unauthorized (without permission) access to confidential information for bad guys. I would like to immediately warn you against using passwords like qwerty (the first six letters on the keyboard) or 12345678, which will in no way protect you.

In addition, do not under any circumstances create a password using letters or numbers placed in a row on a computer keyboard. Always remember this, even if you think there is nothing valuable in your account. But this is in your opinion, which may not coincide with the opinion of hackers who can use even the most insignificant data at first glance to your detriment.

A dozen passwords can still be written down somewhere on a piece of paper and stored in some secluded place. But imagine if there are several dozen, or even hundreds of services in which you are registered. Especially if you use them not occasionally, but daily.

In this case, it will be quite problematic to manually enter complex passwords into the authorization form each time. We need to automate the process somehow. In addition, a completely logical question arises: where to store passwords and logins for the sites on which you are registered.

To be honest, I don't fully trust the autofill and password storage features that are present in all modern browsers. But a reliable third-party free and open source program like this may be the tool that will help in this matter.

At one time, when searching for the necessary software, it was the presence of open source code that any more or less experienced programmer could check that I paid primary attention to. Well, positive reviews online played a role, of course. Since then I have been successfully using Kipas for several years.

KeePass Manager is an almost perfect solution in every sense. You should only come up with the most complex main password, consisting of 25-30 characters, which must be entered to enter the created database of logins and passwords for all services in which you are registered.

There is a portable version of this manager, which, by the way, I use myself. You can easily store the database itself on, or even better, on removable media in the form of a flash drive. This will further increase security.

KeePass has all the necessary tools to make the process easier and faster, including a great tool with which you can generate extremely complex passwords fully automatically, which not only saves a lot of time, but also ensures reliability.

If you need to log into your profile on any site, simply open the authorization page and press the necessary hot keys (of course, you first need to open Kipas), as a result of which the form with login and password will be instantly filled out and you will be automatically logged in. Lepota.

Yes, this manager allows you not only to log into accounts of any online services, but also into the necessary programs, for example, in FileZilla to connect to the hosting server where your site “lives”, or in Keeper WinPro of the WebMoney payment system. In general, use the recommendations given here and always remember to be safe. Amen.
