I generally used the default settings, and whilst I would have appreciated a little more guidance on which options were more secure, nothing was impossible to Google. To start with, I installed LastPass’ Chrome extension 1 and Android app 2. However, I need to get my 1000+ Chrome passwords over there… Migrating to LastPass It might not be the cheapest, but $3 vs $5 per month really isn’t much for a comfortable password management experience! I went for LastPass as it was very highly rated, easy to use, and supported all operating systems I work on. As such, I decided it was time to finally migrate to a “proper” solution. Whilst my Google account is secure, can I really be as confident in my personal machine / phone, both of which have access to all those passwords at any time? Probably not. However, a lot of sites still don’t support 2FA, so all it would take to compromise an unknown number of my accounts is one bit of malware. I almost always use unique passwords, always use 2FA, and even use a unique email per service (so the source of any spam emails can be identified). BackstoryĬonsidering how much of my life is online, and how security conscious I am, using Chrome’s Password Manager was always a guilty secret. As you might expect, after 14 years I built up a lot of saved passwords (1000+)! However, migration to a proper solution is long overdue, here’s how I did it and tidied up my passwords at the same time.
