Do you struggle with remembering all your usernames and passwords? End the struggle by enrolling in 1Password.
What is 1Password?
- 1Password is a password manager that safely stores and manages your passwords, credit cards and other documents across all of your devices.
- You only need to remember a passphrase to access your information.
- A passphrase is a sentence or phrase that is easy for you to remember but difficult for others to guess. For example, “Bucky Badger does push-ups when we score.”
- It’s free to use for students, faculty and staff.
Why use a password manager?
Password managers eliminate the need to remember multiple passwords. They also notify you if your current password is used on multiple sites or if your password can be easily hacked. 1Password can also generate new passwords for you!
1Password uses AES-256 encryption (also used by the FBI) which is a top-tier security standard and is virtually uncrackable using any brute-force method. 1Password works across all platforms and devices including Windows, Mac, Linux, Android and iOS, meaning you can login to a site on your computer and access the same site via 1Password on any of your other devices that have 1Password installed.
