Monthly checklist

Every month follow these tips to ensure you password manager is as safe as possible.

  • Check for any old or weak passwords and update them with strong, unique ones. Many password managers offer a security dashboard or audit feature that identifies weak, reused, or potentially compromised passwords.

  • Delete any stored credentials for accounts you no longer use. This reduces potential attack vectors and keeps your password manager organized.

  • Use your password manager’s audit feature to find and eliminate reused passwords. Each account should have a unique password to prevent a breach on one site from affecting others.
