Our passwords are the primary way we log in to all the services we use day in and day out. Unfortunately, passwords are becoming increasingly complex as pressure from hackers push us towards more secure choices. But what if there were a better way that didn't involve memorizing an incomprehensible string of characters?

Are you still not using a password manager? I switch to using 1Password nearly a decade ago, and not a single day has gone by since when I didn't use the app at least once. I trust 1Password with my entire digital life, and you should too.

If you have a password manager, chances are you rely on an online account that tracks and stores all of your passwords. It's convenient, but you can actually keep your passwords stored off the internet while still syncing across devices.

It might not be on your calendar, but World Password Day is an annual event on the first Thursday of May. This year, it falls on May 1. The purpose of World Password Day is to remind you about good password practices and to encourage you to take a moment to consider the security of your accounts.
