Password managers and additional password security

[jakub.jezek 350]

Hello,

 

Since Fibaro introduced better password requirements for standard users in 4.161, i still see an improvemets here.

 

Password managers:

• U cannot make user to remember all password or write it somewhere and he can loose it (even in users file system).
• I'm using Last pass for generating passwords and i have to say, i'm pretty happy with it, because it helped me secure my accounts and i have to remember only 1 password to get to them.
• It has mainly usage for dealers, but i think end-customers would like it too.
  • use-case: User expect to fill username and password to clients system with one button and et there easy without loosing time finding or reseting the password.

 

Some additional password security:

• Very interesting git module, that could provide additional security:

I use 1Password for that purpose and it is very useful. It integrates with browsers and enables easy login and has password generator.

As a long-term user I can really recommend it.
