        Stick them on the monitor or under keyboard and you will be fine!

    • i have dozens, maybe 100+ online accounts if you tally up all the miscellaneous forums, stores, services, etc. from online stores i might use once every several months to social media accounts i use every day. it's impossible to remember that many passwords, and reusing passwords across different accounts is bad practice (you don't want a breach of account on some random store you used years ago that happens to have bad security, to mean you have to change your password on several other websites, and that's if you're even informed about the initial breach). i started writing my passwords down in a plaintext file on my computer (also bad practice presumably, but i'm lazy) then eventually gave that up for Lastpass.

    • +2

      It's surprising how many passwords you need. I currently have almost 300 passwords in LastPass for two users.

      Instead of using the same core password with an ascending number at the end. LastPass allows you to have each password unique, random and a suitable length (offline brute force can crack an 8 character password in a few hours, so go for 12+).

    • +1

      I have 950 unique passwords at the moment, good luck remembering all of those.

      • +1

        Considering the Bog pic, I can already assume what 900 of those are for

    • I don’t do it but one of the uses of these tools is to auto generate passwords that are random 20 character or whatever strings that a human would stand no chance of remember, in order to make brute force attacks on an account more difficult.

    • +1

      If you've been doing that, your passwords are probably in here: https://haveibeenpwned.com/Passwords

      The only ways to keep your passwords out of there are to use a password manager, or wear a tinfoil hat. I tend to prefer the latter.

  • So if I want to stack for multiple years do I just say buy 2 and activate both now for 2 years?

    • Yes I believe you can just make multiple orders and then activate both consecutively to get 24 months in total added starting from now.

      • +2

        Thanks, bought 2 and got 24 months til expiry now.

    Bitwarden is one of the best ones I have tried. It’s open source and available on all platforms. I have also used Norton ID safe and couldn’t fault it either. Don’t have a reason to pay money for the same functionality.

    • +4

      I have been a long time LastPass user but when they doubled their fee I went to Bitwarden. It does almost everything LastPass does and I think I will subscribe to BitWarden just to pay them something for a service I use a lot.

      The only thing I found (or maybe I haven't found it) is that LastPass gives you the option of requiring your master password again when using credit card details or sensitive log-ins. BitWarden doesn't.

      Bitwarden also seems to play nicer with the fingerprint security feature on my iPhone…. and is more responsive to log-in fields. LastPass would not do auto fill-in on some pages, even when it was enabled.

      • +1

        yup Bitwarden convert here as well.

    • Interesting.

      Any comparison of Bitwarden vs KeePass you can share?

      Googling now…

      First comparison
      Second comparison

      edit: What I'm personally quite curious about is whether Bitwarden has a feature like Keepass' "AutoType"? I really like this feature and consider it quite essential.

    • [deleted]

      Similar post exists with respect to "self-hosting" Bitwarden.

    • +1

      Switched from Lastpass to Bitwarden a few months ago too. Works well.

    • +1

      +1 for Bitwarden. Opensource and free to use mobile app. Browser integration (IMO) is not quite as good as LastPass, but not far behind either

      • I'm concerned about bit warden only having one developer. Is bit warden more secure. I would like to change to bit warden

        • Bitwarden has not yet had an independent security audit along the likes of TrueCrypt et cetera , but if you look on various Reddit posts most people are comfortable with the product. It's a small company but Kyle the developer looks like he's going places.
          I gave it a try several months ago on a trial basis just for a geeky change from lastpass. I like it. Since then Logmein who own Lastpass abandoned my all time favourite Chrome extension Xmarks with only one months notice. Pissed me right off, so I am less than enthusiastic about ever going back to Lastpass. Anyway xBrowserSync is purring along nicely to solve that problem.
          Short Answer: Give Bitwarden a go. Be happy.

  • +1

    I've always been paranoid of these password managers, probably more chance of them being hacked then being hacked by random, but I'm not a security expert so who knows.

    • +1

      I keep LassPass accessible with my Master Password + a authenticator on my phone. So you need 2 factor authentication to get access.
      Also you can restrict session log in to 30 days.

      • +3

        Or Yubikey (I use a Neo myself for NFC)

    • +3

      If you use the same password or weak passwords, you are worse off than using a password manager. The risk if significantly lower if you use a password manager.

      • What about if you used different passwords with symbols, numbers and letters that are a bit random and not your real name or d.o.b? surely hackers are more incetivised to hack a company like that because they'll get legit all your passwords in one hit also whats to stop them from still hacker the passwords in the locker or w/e yeah they're harder but it doesn't make it bullet proof.

        • +1

          What about if you used different passwords with symbols, numbers and letters that are a bit random and not your real name or d.o.b?

          Might have a hard time remembering it then aye ;)
          Check out my other comments below but pretty much a password manager is a terrific idea unless you've got a photographic memory.

        • If you are going to remember all that lol. Still not ideal, changing a number is an obvious trick that any person could try if they had a password of an existing system. Is your password very complex? https://lastpass.com/howsecure.php

        • @OnlinePred: says my passwords are very strong, I guess that's a good thing lol

        • @Jetship: Individually yes. If they are just incremented numbers as a collection, then no.

          Example, if you have ThisIsMyPasswordApp1eF@ther5, this is pretty strong, but if your next password is ThisIsMyPasswordApp1eF@ther6, then this is a weak password, as if one system that you use leaks their passwords, then all your passwords are at risk.

          But if you are confident that it wouldn't happen then it's not an issue. Example strong passwords look like this:
          "Y0tEbonCx&bP^91", "Cl&ai%ixWjPJLBi", "qnCOGSwRJrHKo*On". There is nothing similar, and they are all very strong passwords. Lastpass will generate these and keep them. All you need to do is remember one very strong password.

          @Spooderman:

          I have a photographic memory, but i cant seem to remember anything of what the inlaws say after 2mins.

          I sleep better that way.

        • @OnlinePred: Had to jump in, if you are saying that a change in one 'digit' of a 24+ character password is a weak one then you need to do bit more on Crypto knowledge! How long to break the password in the example you have provided, and the change in the hash with the new digit, and if by error or chance there is salting on the top…why not try your own example and throw some password cracker at it, even with a MD5 hash…you might be surprised…..too many guru's here, I'm out:)

        • You should read up on how passwords are typically cracked…
          If you're using a "system" and you're a big enough target, you'll be found out.

        • @some_one_some_where:
          Mathematically you're right, but Password Hacking is as much psychology as it is mathematics.
          It's easy and logical (for a human) to programmatically cycle through all numerical variants of a known password.
          If ThisIsMyPasswordApp1eF@ther5 has been cracked, you can guarantee that ThisIsMyPasswordApp1eF@ther6 (and many other numerical variants) will be added to the cracking dictionary.

    • The Checkout - Passwords
      Please give this a watch, explains everything pretty well :)

    • The passwords are encrypted. By the time a super computer decrypts it I'll be dead for several hundred years

    • Lastpass do not see your passwords.
      The device you use to access Lastpass grabs an Encrypted file from LastPass Servers and decrypts it locally, any changes are then re-encrypted locally and synced back up to LastPass servers where they are further salted and encrypted..
      You can change the number of encryption cycles that are made locally in LastPass settings.
      Even if LastPass gets hacked to root level access on their servers, the best case for the hackers is an Encrypted file of your passwords.

      The major flaw in this is if hackers have access to your actual machine and can therefore access the decrypted package of passwords, however, if the hackers have such a level of access to one of your machines, you're already screwed, no matter how complex your passwords or how you store them.

      A Password Manager limits your exposure whilst maximising convenience.

  • Would anyone recommend this for Apple users? IPhone and macbook air

    • +2

      I use Lasspass on iphone, macbook pro and imac. Work well. Particularly when OI use the extension on Chrome all I need is to authenticate in with 2 factor and the session last for 30 days.

      • thanks

    • +1

      Yep works great on both, will work even better soon with iOS 12 as it has a new API for these sort of apps to making fill easier (it's already good, but it'll be more seemless).

  • +2

    Haven't these guys been hacked before?

    • +2

      Heaps, they're a huge target. Hackers have never gotten shit though.

      Quoting their own site.

      LastPass encrypts your Vault before it goes to the server using 256-bit AES encryption. Since the Vault is already encrypted before it leaves your computer and reaches the LastPass server, not even LastPass employees can see your sensitive data! A hash is a representation of your Master Password.

      If that didn't help, it more or less means even if they are hacked all the hackers are going to get is a bunch of encrypted files. LastPass themselves have no way of accessing your passwords nor does anyone else without your master password. I'm not endorsing LastPass, every decent password manager does this. Please find a password manager to protect yourself!

    • +2

      Multiple times. Even their own servers were compromised:

      https://www.lifehacker.com.au/2015/06/lastpass-hacked-change…

      I believe that your passwords are stored encrypted (hopefully!) on their servers which means anyone who gets a hold of it won't be able to decrypt it without your master password.

      However, there have also been security vulnerabilities in their browser extensions which allows running arbitrary code (including that which reveals your passwords).

      https://bugs.chromium.org/p/project-zero/issues/detail?id=12…

      I would not use any security products from a company with such a bad track record, no matter the discount I get. Proceed with caution.

  • +1

    Any benefit over Google's saved passwords?

    • +1

      Works across multiple platforms. Also you can keep secure notes e.g. tax file number, wifi passwords, bank details etc. I use it for everything I think I'll need to remember in the future

    • not an expert, but i think dedicated password managers like these tend to be more secure than browser ones, Chrome included. i think Chrome's password locker is still vulnerable to some niche attacks but you'd have to look into it for more informed explanation.

    • Gooele Chrome saved passwords isn't safe at all if someone has access to your computer

      • Yes. Leaving your computer unlocked is not safe.

  • +2

    Another option people can look into is Bitwarden. Very similar to last pass except open source and has the option to host your password db on your own hardware. Nicer UX compared to Keepass too, imo.

    Edit: someone beat me to it…

  • +2

    Been using the free version of LastPass for a few years now, its been excellent.

  • +2

    Thanks, can only purchased 2. Third gets declined.

    • Does this stack with your existing subscription?

      • yes

      • yes, i just did it :)

      • +1

        Thanks all!

    • According to SlickDeals, if you change your payment method it allows you to get more than 2, I think it's 2 per payment method.

      • Stacking two will do me for now…. or will that get me thrown out of OzBargain? :)

        • I'm not sure how often this goes on sale, but I think 2 years is good amount to buy atm :)

        • @doweyy:

          So just to get this straight, I can buy 2 (or more depending on payment method) of these deals and get 2 (or more) years of Premium subscription onto a single account?

        • @frbargain:

          Yes that's correct :) You can stack them all on one account and it'll just change the expiry of premium by 12 months each time.

  • +1

    if anyone reading these comments is completely new to password managers, my opinion is that even if you don't buy this - i probably won't - Lastpass Free is still pretty good, especially if you do a lot of mobile browsing (the mobile app will auto-fill passwords without Premium).

    • Does it work with iPhone?

      • Yes - it has an app

    • Doesn’t autofill in Safari on iPhone? Unless by autofill you mean tapping few buttons to fill the login area?

      • that's what i mean yeah, as opposed to opening the app , finding the correct site and copying the password to clipboard etc.

  • Hmm, do i subscribe to humble monthy this month for the 10% discount. A Hat in Time looks pretty great, and confirmed not coming to switch.

    Also, the premium features do seem a bit lacking. Not sure anything i'd even use.

  • I used to pay for this when the mobile apps are still exclusive to premium subscriber, but the app is now included in the free version so no need to pay extra for other features I don't use. This is an excellent Password manager and been using it for almost 5 years without any issues. Make sure to enable two factor authentication and only choose 'Australia' in country restriction setting.

  • My only complaint about LastPass is the crappy mobile app. It's so intrusive, if I "X" out then it shouldn't ask me again until I revisit that site.

    • I stopped running LastPass as a service on my phone because of this. I switch from chrome to LastPass for sites that need logins

  • +2

    Nice and cheap 2 year top up - thanks a bunch OP!

  • There's also sticky password https://www.stickypassword.com/

  • What's wrong with just storing a document with passwords on it in OneDrive or Google drive?

    • I keep my document of passwords under a rock by the front door. Seriously though, last pass is pretty good, try out the free version, its gots all the important functionality

    • +1

      I didn't see a /s so not sure if you were being serious or not.

      Please don't store your passwords on a cloud drive in plain text. All it takes is one of your computers, phones or the cloud provider having a security breach and all of your passwords are available in clear text.

      LastPass encrypts all of your passwords. Not even lastpass can see your passwords without your master password. The only way for your passwords to be accessed is by you typing in your master password.

  • +2

    The biggest problem with Lastpass is that the free version is too good compared to $30 a year for I've no idea what.

    • +2

      The only reason I can find that is of any use to me is being able to use a Yubikey as 2FA. And that's only because I now have a Yubikey from the Wired deal and nothing to do with it.

      I've never been able to resist a useless bargain so I got 2 years of Premium today and changed from Google Authenticator to Yubikey 2FA. A theoretical security upgrade but come on- how was anyone going to get my passwords with Google Authenticator, for free?

  • +3

    Just to add, if you have a valid uni email address, you can get 6 months free premium

    Successfully tried just now

    • Good find! I'll chuck that in the OP to help people :)

      • Do you guys know if I can stack this? Activate the student discount, and then purchase this deal to kick in after the free six months ends?

        • +2

          Yes, this stacked to 1 year and 6 months for me

  • this is pretty good. pity i can't use my googlecredits.

  • +1

    Does anyone know what happens if you purchase these licenses, apply them, and then upgrade to LastPass Family? I know that they pro-rata existing licenses as a discount on Family, but do you get USD$6 discounted, or USD$24?

    • i want to know this as well, since I am already on lastpass family. I could probably take the plunge. its only $6

      • +1

        I tried to apply the coupon when already on family, coupon used nothing happened. :D So I would say don't try it.

        • +1

          Damn, I was going to try this… thought it might be a great way to extend families by 6 months for 6 bucks.

    • You will have discounted LastPass family. Showing $12 discount for me (i'm not on family yet) so $36 a year (normally $48)

      • That discount is normal trying to convince you to move to family.

        If you can convince 2 more people in the family to use LastPass. You are saving money.

        • ? The discount says because i'm a premium user. I'm not aware of the referral program so this might be on top of that

        • @djprima:

          Oh no not a referral program. I meant comparing the cost of family and premium. But I remember they give you a discount to convince you to move to family

        • @kelvinate: ah i see. No i didn't get that. At the checkout page the discount says because i'm a premium user

    • It's a bit of hassle but I've just done this:
      1. removed one of my family members
      2. applied the premium to her account
      3. added her back to the family (so her premium will be absorbed into the family account).

      Now the family expiry date had been extended for 6 months.

      I've also tried to remove her again and her account been reverted back to the free version, and family expiry stays.

      So it's $6 for 6mths? still worth it compared to the 48 a year right?

  • Isn't 2 factor authentication included in the free account?

    • Yes I'm using free version with 2F google authentication.

      • The free version is quite feature rich. not convinced about getting the premium version.

        • +1

          but lastpass is now owned by logmein… so it will only be a matter of time before they get rid of the free version or severely cripple it.
