[QUOTE="piquiteco, post: 1017098, member: 96829"] One other thing you can do, if you don't trust cloud based password manager or for other reasons, or because you are a little bitparanoid, you just store a part of your password in your password manager, not everything for example: let's say your password for your account is this [SPOILER]@wR69Y3&N$e6UY4[/SPOILER] you save that password in your password manager and add + something for example: [SPOILER] <+A9*03=(5)[/SPOILER] you memorize just this one[SPOILER] <+A9*03=(5)[/SPOILER]and the other one which would be this [SPOILER]@wR69Y3&N$e6UY4[/SPOILER] you leave it saved inside your password manager, if your password manager is compromised like what happened with Lastpass recently it will be useless to a hacker, with only the first password he won't be able to access any of your accounts, because it will be incomplete, the other part only you know. I had seen this somewhere I do not remember where, I do not remember type password + Salt something like that. ;) [/QUOTE]
