Forgot Password? How to prevent forgetting passwords!

Forgot your password? How to prevent forgetting your Logins!

 

Are you using the same password with many of your online accounts that you sign into? Do you use one generic password and username you use on all your major sites. Don’t wait until your site gets hacked and you have a lot of hassles to deal with to protect your acounts.   LastPass - a fantastic tool that remembers all your login credentials in one vault accessible only by you.

It is the last password you will have to remember.

Every time you login to a site or sign up to a new tool or app, asks whether you want to remember your password, and you simply say yes, save it under a category and you’re done.

Autofill can be set up for sites you use frequently.

It is  convenient when you are using a computer that is not yours.  You just login in to the LastPass website and then you can access sites you often use and log into them!
