Password Managers

A password manager is the rare security product where the choice genuinely matters, because you are handing one vendor every credential you own. The property to check first is zero-knowledge architecture: the vendor should be unable to read your vault even if it wanted to, which means encryption and decryption happen on your device with a key derived from a passphrase the vendor never receives. After that, look at three things most comparisons skip. Whether the vendor commissions independent security audits and publishes the results, rather than merely asserting it is secure. How it has handled its own incidents, since a candid disclosure and a clear remediation record tells you more than an unblemished marketing page. And whether you can export your entire vault in a standard format - a manager you cannot leave is a manager that never has to earn your renewal.
