How secure are password managers... really?
Password managers store your login credentials in an encrypted vault.
They work by:
Using a master password to generate a strong encryption key
Encrypting each password locally on your device
Storing the encrypted data locally or in the cloud
Decrypting passwords only when needed, using your master password
To stay secure:
Create a strong master password (16+ characters, mix of characters)
Enable two-factor authentication with an authenticator app
Keep your devices and software updated
Set auto-lock timers and make regular backups
Watch for suspicious login attempts or sync errors
