Let's now look at each of the managers in more detail.
Top 6 password managers for personal use
1Password (supports Mac, iOS, Android, Windows)
Today, 1Password is one of the most popular password managers. It works both online and without connecting to the World Wide Web. It can easily synchronize via wifi, icloud or even dropbox. This means that synchronizing your data is completely under your control.
Of course, the manager has a mobile application. It has good functionality that allows you to easily enter the necessary profiles, enable unlocking of the “storage” via iPhone’s Touch ID, etc.
1Password lets you save more than just passwords. You can enter delivery addresses, phone and credit card numbers, driver's licenses and other important data into the safe.
LastPass (Web, Mac, iOS, Android, Windows support)
What is LastPass and what is it served with? This password manager will work anywhere. You heard right. It really works everywhere. There are extensions for all popular Internet browsers, an application for Windows on PC, Linux and Mac. In mobile application stores it will not be a problem to find an option for Android, iOS, Windows Phone, Blackberry. In addition, the program is free when used on one device, which makes it very attractive for ordinary users.
The premium version of the program makes it possible to synchronize it with as many devices as you can think of. In the mobile application, you can paste the required password into the required field using the usual copy-paste method. Apple owners can get instant access to the application through the Touch ID function. In general, the developers took care of everyone.
LastPass does a great job of storing credit card numbers and bank account numbers so you can access this information anywhere. If necessary, you can create access to a particular folder with passwords for other users.
On a larger scale, LastPass Enterprise allows business owners to manage their entire company's passwords through a web browser extension. That is, you can monitor the status of the passwords of any group member and make timely adjustments if necessary.
Dashlane (Web, Mac, iOS, Android, Windows)
This manager advocates for fresh data. Once installed, Dashlane scans your entire database for weak, damaged, or duplicate passwords. Then he will politely suggest changing them from time to time to maintain the proper level of security. If suddenly the site you are using is hacked, the manager will immediately warn you of the danger so that you can quickly change the “lock”.
By the way, changing your password here is quick and completely painless. You can carry out the procedure in a couple of clicks. Dashlane also made switching from another manager easy and enjoyable. The program will simply scan your applications and computer for passwords, and then import them into its database.
Great news for those who often make purchases in online stores: the manager not only saves bank card and account numbers, but also receipts from stores, and details expenses. The latter can be a good help for those who are used to keeping track of the family budget. Everyone is interested in the question, where does the salary go so long before the next one?
oneSafe (Mac, iOS, Android, Windows)
The developers initially intended this manager to be something more. That is, not just a safe for passwords, but also a reliable storage for files of various types. You can easily password protect files on your own computer, and then easily back up copies to any storage device.
Secret videos and photos on your mobile phone, pictures of your bank cards, insurance policy, or even the code to the locker in the gym. OneSafe will reliably hide all this from prying eyes. Another interesting feature is Decoy Safe. This feature allows you to create a phantom, that is, fake data for potential thieves. And let them hack a non-existent account... A convenient navigation system allows you to find all the necessary data easily and simply.
The program is also good because you can choose your own login method: from swipe and Touch ID to a PIN code or the newly introduced “Tri-Pin” technology. Another plus is cross-platform support, so synchronizing all involved devices will not cause any problems.
iCloud Keychain (iOS, Mac)
This is software for Apple owners and fans. Keychain software has been faithfully serving its users for many years now. In fact, the program has been running on Mac for a long time. This is Apple's default password manager. Which means, if you are listed in the registry of your Mac, then you are automatically the owner of an account in Keychain.
As for iCloud Keychain, today it is integrated into all the latest versions of iOS and OS X. And it protects all the data synced between your devices via iCloud. All information falls under the program's control automatically.
You can’t call this software just a password manager. Essentially, this is a full-fledged safe for your secret information. There you can enter access to servers, Wi-Fi network settings, protected disk images, etc. The program easily upgrades to new versions and synchronizes via iCloud. The manager gets access to settings on iOS through the Safari browser. It will automatically fill out forms and display your credit card numbers. All of this is protected by your iPhone's digital four-digit PIN. And Touch ID protects the system from strangers. As for the desktop application, Keychain will allow you to see all your saved passwords and conveniently sort them into folders. This software is designed exclusively for the Apple ecosystem. But the program only works with Safari. The developers note that the choice of Firefox or Chrome is not supported.
Splikity (iOS, Android, Chrome, Firefox, Safari)
It is not without reason that this program is considered an excellent manager for beginners. The interface is extremely simple and clear. You can save your passwords on both the web and mobile devices. The online control panel allows you to easily carry out any operations with passwords. As for browser extensions, Splikity can be integrated into Firefox, Safari or Chrome, which will remember data for your favorite resources.
You can also install the application on your smartphone. After logging in, the data is synchronized and will become available for work. While you are using the browser application, the program will automatically enter all data into the database. If you need to send a login to another user, no problem. This can be done via e-mail, while your password will remain hidden from prying eyes.
Top 6 Password Managers for Business
Now let's move on to software that will significantly facilitate and secure the work with passwords in companies. Here are your requirements for the functionality and tools of the programs. For example, general profiles in which several users can work simultaneously. This is convenient for global administration and monitoring of company data security.Of course, you can use any of the above managers, but their functionality is significantly limited and is not focused on the business environment.
Passwork (Web, Android, iOS, Chrome, Windows)
IT professionals highly value the transparent encryption algorithms and software capabilities that open source provides. There are two ways you can use Passwork. Firstly, you can install the boxed version on your own server and get an open source product that can be modified if necessary. Secondly, you can use the cloud version. After installation, you will have access to all the manager's many features.
The developers took a very interesting approach to the distribution of access rights. For example, you can add a new user to a temporary group by sending him an encrypted link with a one-time password by email. The administrator can easily check who has access to which passwords, and can also easily track the history of actions with them.
All passwords in the program can be sorted into groups and then into folders. Actually, it is very convenient for a large team to work in a group. And in folders it will be easier to divide all accounts according to their functional purpose. In addition, this program has a browser extension, so you can log into the desired account quickly and without unnecessary steps.
Thus, you can work with colleagues in groups, invite by e-mail or a special link, provide access to single passwords and a number of other features tailored specifically for collaboration.
One cannot fail to note the pleasant and minimalistic design of Passwork, which for some reason is alien to most password managers.
Passwork provides a public API, so third-party developers can program their own client applications or carry out tighter integration with their infrastructure.
Passwork developers are located in Russia, so the service is fully adapted for the Russian language (including the cost of use: 290 rubles versus $18 per year per user). And the boxed version is adapted for Russian business and government agencies.
Meldium (Firefox, Safari, Chrome)
Meldium is basically a combination of a web application launcher and a password manager. It is great for working in groups with shared accounts.
The interface is quite simple. You have a main page where all involved accounts are displayed. To fill out a form in a particular browser tab, just one click is enough. Any team member can quickly open the required application. Using the browser application and the Meldium profile, the user will have access to company passwords sorted into groups. If necessary, administrators can add a new user. To do this, just add it manually or send an invitation by email.
This program is also useful if you need to access your personal profile. Meldium makes it possible to add all personal employee profiles and use the control panel for further administration and monitoring. The program also allows you to track password usage throughout your company. If weak or outdated passwords are detected, Meldium will mark them as weak and promptly prompt you to update them. We can say that the program finds and closes holes in the security wall of your organization.
Zoho Vault (Chrome, Firefox)
The next storage facility on our list is called Zoho. This software allows your team members to easily and securely share important information. All you need to do is download and install a specialized extension for one of the supported browsers. True, there are only two last ones.
Using a CSV file, you can quickly import all passwords if you switched to Zoho from another manager. In personal managers, export tools serve only this purpose.
The program's reporting tools will notify you of all changes that occur in your accounts. Be it access operations or changing a password, using a particular login, etc. The business version provides administrators with very wide capabilities. A convenient and intuitive interface allows you to quickly understand the Zoho Vault operating system.
SimpleSafe (Self-Hosted Web App)
This program is highly appreciated by IT specialists. They note that SimpleSafe can be considered an excellent starting platform with impressive functionality and tools.
The process of becoming familiar with the program begins with carefully setting up the environment and database fields where passwords will subsequently be stored. You can sort passwords of the same format into groups. When setting up SimpleSafe, you are free to name the database fields as you wish. Now, whenever your team needs to track down some private information, it will be a simple task.
The control panel in the program functions in the same way as in other similar managers, so team members will be very comfortable with its interface. True, SimpleSafe cannot boast of its own browser extension. So, if you need to enter a password, you will have to use the copy/paste method. The thing is that the software is installed on local servers.
Vaultier (Web, Ubuntu)
Vaultier is another password manager for team work that you can install on your own server. However, it is quite possible to work with a lightweight version of the software - a cloud version of this “safe”. Additionally, Vaultier packages seamlessly into a Docker container with a full installation.
Vaultier relies on personal encrypted keys to protect passwords, even when protecting passwords for your entire team. Passwords are sorted into “safes” (vaults), then into “cards” with “secrets”. The latter contain passwords and account names. Such groups can also be used to differentiate access levels. That is, each user can have access to the entire “safe” or only one “card” within it. Administrators can revoke or assign access levels to any team member.
It's a password manager for the workplace with a focus on security. At the same time, each team member can safely use it to protect personal accounts.
CommonKey (Web, Chrome)
Thanks to CommonKey, business password management is feasible and easy to implement for both large and small teams. As a cloud storage service, CommonKey works great through browser extensions for Safari, Chrome and Firefox.
Separate folders for passwords for different purposes allow you to conveniently organize work in the company by dividing employees into groups. If necessary, you can always add a user to a particular group and then revoke access. It's as easy as sending an invitation by email.
However, CommonKey can also be used as a personal password manager. Team members can themselves add “locks” from their personal accounts to the database and give access to them through the same interface. But you can rest assured. Personal and work passwords will be separated, and important company data will not fall into the wrong hands.
The browser extension will immediately save your passwords when you go online. When registering new accounts, the password generator will immediately start working, so that new profiles will be reliably protected in the very first seconds. And you no longer have to come up with an “access code” yourself.

Rely on your password manager
When setting up a new password manager for personal use or your company's needs, the most important thing is to rely on it and break away from old habits. As long as you prefer to use simple passwords, do not forget that your entire virtual life and business activities are constantly under threat of hacking.Programs called password managers, for the most part, are divided into several main types and allow you to perform many operations to create, save and organize a huge amount of personalized confidential data with a fairly high degree of protection. The uniqueness of such programs has recently become increasingly evident in the fact that they do not use the computer’s hard drive to store personal passwords, credit card access codes or registration accounts for certain web resources.
The development of cloud technologies and the creation of a huge number of virtual file storages on remote servers are attracting more and more users. Yes, this is understandable; any remote server or storage of this type created by IT giants has a much higher degree of protection than personal home or office terminals.
Download password managers You can do it for free from our website very easily. Plus, they have several basic functions. Some password managers are designed to quickly generate a password if you don't want to or don't have time to come up with some fancy password that uses a unique combination of letters, symbols and numbers that couldn't be guessed by a normal person or a program that can parse that type of combination. .
This type of program is the simplest and is built, by and large, on the principles with which the so-called random number generators work. In some cases, if such password managers do not save access combinations in their database, and even more so if you did not write down the password on a piece of paper or in an electronic notepad in time, forgetting it, you risk being left without the right to access a certain type of resource. Most often, this applies specifically to logins and passwords that were used during registration, for example, on social networks. It is clear that such password managers are simply not capable of generating passwords for bank cards or accounts; the only exception may be services such as virtual wallets or access codes to the capabilities of online stores, which sometimes themselves offer password managers to download.
One of the most common types of password managers are programs that not only create passwords, but also store them. Early applications saved all codes on the hard drive. Some applications of this kind still use such technologies, however, the storage of such personal data now occurs in a protected area of the disk. As a rule, access to such data is carried out with at least a two-level security system. Two passwords can be used here, one password is the main code for viewing saved data, and the second, for greater security, is the so-called master password. In other words, if password managers detect an unauthorized attempt to access your data, they may also require a master password, without which you will never gain access. No less interesting among freely distributed programs of this type is the fact that almost all data is subject to a unique encryption system using AES technologies, although many utilities of this type also have their own algorithms, which, of course, are kept in the strictest confidence. You can download password managers on our website absolutely free.
And, of course, among programs in this area, storing all information on remote servers using cloud technologies and virtual file storages is considered top-of-the-line. Quite a large number of software manufacturers today offer a variety of servers of this type. The only condition for all of them is the free registration of a new user and the allocation of a certain disk space for storing personal data. On the Internet you can find and download for free many programs that are simply installed on the system. However, for all applications of this type to work correctly, constant Internet access and communication are required. Unfortunately, without this, such password managers will not have any effect offline.
Writing passwords to a txt file is no longer the same. The right users store secret information in the right programs. We have prepared a review of five password managers - convenient and functional. Their assessment is based solely on personal opinion.

Leave your opinions that are very important to us in the comments.
Greetings, friends. Once again we will examine a topic that concerns any user actively working on the Internet!
Let's take a look at a program called Keepass.
Keepass is a program for saving passwords on your computer from services where you previously registered and with the help of this program you will always have your registration data at hand.
For people who are actively involved in Internet activities, this utility is simply necessary, since due to the specifics of working on the Internet, they often have to register with certain services, ranging from email to various sites, social networks, forums, etc.
And in order not to write down passwords on pieces of paper or in notebooks and, accordingly, not to lose this data, there are similar programs.
Therefore, I decided to make a detailed review of the Keepass program, talk about how to install it and configure it accordingly for further use!
Download and install Keepass
The first step is to open the official website of the developer by clicking on this link
A web page will open in front of you to download the program. It contains 2 versions of the program, I use the portable one, since it does not require installation, you can transfer it to a flash drive and use it anywhere.
Therefore, we download the version " Portable»
In order for the program to work in Russian, we load the crack, for this in the left menu we go to the tab “ Translations»
Then we look for the Russian flag and download the version 2.35+
After completing the above steps, 2 archives will appear on your computer, copy them to a USB flash drive, then proceed to the next step.
Copy the contents of the folder " KeePass-2.35-Russian"to the folder" KeePass-2.35"Then the folder with the crack can be deleted.
After completing these steps, launch the program by clicking on the “ KeepPass»
When you start, the start window will appear in front of you, click “ Disable» - to ensure that updates are not installed automatically
In order for the program to switch to the Russian version, in the top menu click “ View" then " Change Language»
In the window that opens, select “ Russian»
The program will ask you to confirm the action, click " Yes»
After which the program will restart and the interface will be in Russian.
Setting up Keepass to store passwords
The next step is to create a new database; for this, click on the corresponding tab “ Create»
Then a window will appear where you will need to specify a location to save the database, you must save the database to the same flash drive where the installation was carried out and click “ Save»
Then the program will require you to come up with a password to log into the program. I recommend that you come up with a complex password that will consist of letters and numbers, but at the same time I highly recommend not specifying the password in the form of your date of birth, since these passwords are most often hacked.
So, enter the password in the required fields and click “ OK»
Standard folders will appear in the left menu in front of you; you can either delete them or create new ones.
Let's say we want to create a folder in which passwords from Yandex mail, to perform an action in the top menu, click on the tab “ Edit" then " Add a group»
A window will appear in front of you in which we set the name of the future group and select the icon to display, then click “ OK»
So you have successfully created a group, the next step is to create an account, to do this, right-click the field on the right and select “ Add a note»
Fill in the required fields and then click “ OK»
Your account is now saved in your password manager.
The program has one very interesting function: in order to open a website or log in to your email using your login and password, you don’t have to enter the values manually, you just need to use the functions of the Keepass program, which will allow you to copy the login and password to the clipboard for pasting into the authorization window, which is and how is this done?
Let's say we want to log in using a newly created account. Yandex mail, right-click on the login and select “ Copy login»
Nowadays there are a huge number of services on the Internet, in which registration is required to fully participate. The same situation is created in the field of applications, websites, and forums. All this leads to the fact that the average user accumulates a dozen passwords that he must remember.
According to the recommendations of experts, each service should have its own unique password, complex, preferably containing a chaotic set of numbers and letters of various registers, and all of this is at least thirteen characters. Naturally, remembering even one such password is problematic, let alone several.
This is what a password storage program does. It ensures the reliability and security of login data for various accounts. This article presents the best of the best.
Dashlane
This program was released 4 years ago - in 2012, and even then it met all the criteria for such an application.

Dashlane, in addition to Windows, also has an Android program for storing passwords. In general, they are free, but paid versions include the ability to synchronize with all devices on which this product is installed.
KeepPass
KeePass, unlike its previous analogue, is absolutely free and, moreover, open source. An encrypted database ensures the reliability and security of storing information in it.
KeePass supports autofill, checks passwords for difficulty level and can generate them itself, as well as synchronize the device. This password storage program has many browser plugins. Through it you can export data in text form; among its settings there is an access option for multiple users.
The database provides regular (standard) and advanced search. The base can be blocked if necessary or, on the contrary, quickly unblocked. This provides additional protection. For the same purposes, the included options include clearing the clipboard and setting a password.
Officially, KeePass only releases programs for Windows, Linux, X OS. Third-party developers offer options for Android and iPhone. These apps are fully synchronized with KeePass for PC.
Kaspersky Password Manager
Kaspersky Password Manager is a paid program for storing passwords. It can generate them, works with autofill on websites, and checks passwords created by users for complexity. In general, it performs all the functions of a quality application for the purposes pursued.

This password storage program works directly with Google Drive, Dropbox, and SkyDrive storages. They also provide online synchronization of devices on Android, iPhone or Windows. The developers also offer browser plugins.
The program is configured to export and import data. That is, you can import old passwords from other applications or export the entire list in text form, or the function of backing up and restoring information from the application is available.
Encryption in Safe in Cloud is standard, but worth it. When you log into the application, you are asked for a master password.
